FAQ :
The Income Tax Department has launched two new online utilities: one to compare Income-tax Rules, 1962 with Income-tax Rules, 2026, and another to map old forms with new forms under the revised framework.
The new Income Tax Act, 2025, and the Income-tax Rules, 2026, will be applicable from April 1, 2026.
This utility helps users identify corresponding provisions between the 1962 and 2026 rules, understand changes in rule structure and numbering, and quickly navigate old versus new compliance requirements.
The forms mapping tool assists taxpayers and professionals by mapping existing forms under the 1962 rules to new forms under the 2026 rules, helping them understand revised formats and adapt to updated filing requirements.
These tools are important because the new Income Tax Act, 2025, involves significant structural changes, including renumbering and merging of provisions. The utilities act as a bridge, helping users avoid misinterpretation, ensure accurate compliance, and save time.
