This notification addresses the condonation of delay for filing Income Tax Returns and specific forms (9A and 10) for Assessment Years 2016-17, 2017-18, and 2018-19. While Commissioners can condone delays for Forms 9A and 10, this may not be sufficient if the Income Tax Return itself was filed late. This is due to a rule requiring both the forms and the return to be filed by the due date.

FAQ :
This notification concerns the condonation of delay in filing Income Tax Returns and specific forms (9A and 10) for the Assessment Years 2016-17, 2017-18, and 2018-19.
Charitable institutions who have faced hardship and filed their Income Tax Returns or Forms 9A/10 late for the specified assessment years can potentially benefit.
The Commissioner can condone delays in filing Form 9A and Form 10. However, if the Income Tax Return was also filed beyond the due date, this condonation may not be helpful.
For condonation to be effective, both Form 9A/Form 10 and the Income Tax Return must be filed before the prescribed due date, as per Section 13(9) of the Act.
Section 119(2)(b) of the Income-tax Act, 1961, allows for the condonation of delay in filing documents under certain circumstances, such as hardship.
