CBDT to acknowledge black money declarants by August-end
Listen to this Article
Since the government has extended the deadline for payment of tax and penalty under the Income Disclosure Scheme (IDS), necessary amendments have to be carried out in Form-2, which is the acknowledgement issued by the CBDT to people disclosing their wealth.
The IDS Rules prescribe that the acknowledgement in Form-2 is to be issued by the Principal Commissioner/Commissioner to the declarant within 15 days from the end of the month in which the declaration has been furnished.
An order issued by the Income Tax department said that in view of the changes in the IDS, it has extended the time for issuance of acknowledgement in Form-2 "from 15 days to 30 days in respect of the declarations filed under the Scheme in the month of July 2016".
The government has come out with IDS, beginning June 1. Under the scheme, people having undeclared domestic assets can disclose it within the four-month compliance window ending on September 30.
The window provides an opportunity to persons who have not paid full tax in the past to come forward and declare the undisclosed income by paying tax, surcharge and penalty, totalling to 45 per cent of the income declared.
In order to meet the demand of traders, the government last month had extended the deadline for payment of tax and penalty under IDS and allowed declarants to pay the tax and penalty amount in three installments by September 30, 2017.
The first installment of 25 per cent under the IDS 2016 will have to be paid by November 2016 to be followed by another one of 25 per cent by March 31, 2017. The remaining 50 per cent will have to be paid by September 30, 2017. #casansaar (PTI - Times of India)
