My wife has a tax liability of Rs.3470/- for F.Y. 2009-10 (Income from other sources).Since the tax liability is less than Rs.10,000/-,she is not required to pay any Advance-tax. What,then, is the due date for making the payment? Is it 31.3.2010? Or is it to be paid as self-assessment tax prior to filing of Return for F.Y.2009-10? If it can be paid as self-assessment tax in July 2010 (before filing of the Return),then has she to pay any interest for the period April/July 2010?Please clarify quoting the relevant sections,if possible.

Many thanks in advance for an early response.

Advance tax is to be paid in 3 installments incase of a individual..... if it exceeds Rs.10000/- .

But in ur case it is only 3470/-.tax can be paid before filing of return......No interest arise..........

But file the return before 31.7.....

Dear Balaji,

Thanks for yr prompt response.I'll ensure that the Return is filed before 31.7.2010.But to be doubly sure,are you certain that the tax dues can be paid in July 2010 without any interest liability?Would be grateful if you can provide reference of the relevant sections.
