How to rectify non payment of service tax and income tax

Queries 182 views 3 replies

Dear Friends,

                          One case came to me. One Sole Proprietor has been running a private education institution for the last three years. His receipts for the  last financial year is more than 50 lakhs and was around 20 - 30 lakhs in the other previous years . He says he was unaware of the tax procedures and had never gone for any advice before.

 1)    He has not taken Service Tax registration till now. What is the remedy for him for the previous years? Do we need to meet the service tax authorities for that matter?

2)    What can he do regarding the income tax payment from the beginning of the business?

3)     He has not collected or remitted TDS from Salary , Rent etc. What can be done in this regard?

 

Note - He didn't even prepare proper boks of accounts but want to be in proper order in future.

Kindly advice

Does he have license to run the institute? Bank Current account?

That I need to ask. He also mentioned that the bank account is used for both personal and business purposes.

One of the practical suggestion would be::: declare the amount under IDS 2016. It will solve his present problem. No more questions asked. From this year onwards let him regularize everything. (IDS 45% same as IT30% + service tax 15%; interest & penalties saved)
