Income tax return due date for a new company

Efiling 1583 views 3 replies

A private Limited company has been incorporated on 3rd June 2012.  The first AGM is to be held within 18 months and accordingly the due date of AGM will be 2nd December 2013.  In that event the accounts are to be audited and Audited balance sheet and profit & loss accounts are to be made  by 2nd November, 2013. If this is right,  I have two queries here.

 

- does it mean that the first financial year will be from 3rd June 2012 to 2nd May, 2013?  Next financial year will be from 3rd May, 2013 to 31st March 2014.M

- can we treat this as  financial year for the Income tax purposes also file the first return before 2nd December, 2013.  The return will be a loss return and can the losses be carried forward.

 

I look forward guidance from learned members of the club.

Sir,

 

You should be need advice of CA. Plz contact.

Dear Sridhar,

As far as Companies and firms, the ITR must be filed every year even if there is no business transactions. In your case the company was incorporated on June 2012. As per IT Act the financial year is 1 April to 31 March. So, the ITR should have filed on or before 30.09.2013. You never mind about the AGM. It is only approval as per Companies Act.

The accounts shall be made upto 31.3.13 and even MAT shall apply to the case. The audit shall be done afterwards and it has no link with filing if return and paying tax.
