Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the deadlines for issuing income tax notices under Section 148 for the assessment year 2013-14. While standard time limits depend on the amount of escaped income (4 years for under £1 lakh, 6 years for over £1 lakh, and 16 years for foreign assets), the CBDT extended the deadline to 31.12.2020 due to the pandemic. Therefore, for AY 2013-14, notices could be issued up to this extended date.
Notice under section 148 could be issued within a period of 4 years from the end of relevant AY (assessment year) in case the income so escaped doesn’t exceed INR 1 lac.
In case the income so escaped is more than INR one lac the notice under the said section could be issued within a period of 6 years from the end of relevant AY subject to provisions contained in section 151.
The notice under section 148 could be issued within a period of 16 years from the end of relevant AY in case the income that has escaped assessment relates to assets located outside India.
