This amendment takes effect from the 1st day of October, 2024.

Individuals domiciled in India generally need to obtain a certificate stating they have no outstanding liabilities under various tax acts, or have made satisfactory arrangements for payment, before leaving India.

Previously covered acts included the Income-tax Act, 1961, the Wealth-tax Act, 1957, the Gift-tax Act, 1958, and the Expenditure-tax Act, 1987.

A certificate may be required if circumstances exist which, in the opinion of an income-tax authority, make it necessary for a person to obtain one.
