Penalty paid in full

Dear Rohit,

There is no such practice of issuing a separate "No due certificate" upon the completion of assessment or payment of tax & penalty.

That assessment order(or the Demand Notice) in itself is a certificate that only this much tax was due.

Having said that an assessment can also be re-opened u/s 147 & then AO can make additions to ur earlier tax liability. But there is a time limit (6 years) for issuing a notice for the re-opening.

Thanks amir for the reply.

I have intensions of taking employment in foreign country this is why I wanted a clearance certificate ....should i use form33c and apply for clearance certificate....that the govt does not object to be leaving India now as no dues are left now.

Thanks in advance for your valuable input. Kindly assist.
