FAQ :

The All India Joint Representation Committee for GST, an alliance of 24 GST and Trade Associations, has requested the extension.

The request was made to the Finance Minister, Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman.

The request covers GST Audits, Income Tax Returns (for non-audit and audit cases), Tax Audit Reports, Transfer Pricing Reports, and ROC Compliances.

The associations cite the ongoing challenges of the pandemic, including lockdown restrictions, limited staff availability, difficulties in travel, and the impact on the physical and mental health of professionals and taxpayers.

Proposed new dates include 28.02.2021 for GSTR 9/9A/9C for FY 1819, 30.06.2021 (ideally up to 30.09.2021) for FY 1920 GSTR 9/9A/9C, 31.01.2021 for Income Tax Returns (non-audit), 15.02.2021 for Tax Audit and Transfer Pricing Reports, 31.03.2021 for Income Tax Returns (audit cases), and 31.03.2021 for ROC Compliances.

The associations feel the current extensions are 'minuscule' and inadequate, leading to immense pressure on professionals and potentially compromising the quality of work and increasing the risk of errors.
