KEY POINTS


Pay the taxes first, and then return the files

The filing of income tax returns is a self-assessment method where the taxpayer must calculate the taxable income earned in the previous year and the income tax owed on him. Taxes payable must be paid before submitting a tax return. Taxes can be paid online or via Challan 280 by depositing into the bank by cheque or cash.

Filing in late returns

If the Taxpayer misses the due date for filing the return, the return can still be submitted as a “late return” on the last date of the estimated year. However, losses or accumulated depreciation are not transferable and if an error occurs, late returns cannot be checked again.

Sanction for not applying for ITR

Filing an ITR is a mandatory requirement under Section 139 of the Income Tax Act of 1961, and failure to apply for an ITR will result in a fine of up to Rs. 5,000 / -. These penalties exceed interest or other consequences for not paying taxes. However, if the real reason for ITO satisfaction is shown, it can be revoked or reduced.

TAX AUDIT UNDER INCOME TAX


What is Tax Audit?

There are different types of audits that are performed under different laws, such as Company audits / mandatory audits according to company law, cost audits, inventory audits, and others. Likewise, the Income Tax Act requires an audit which is called a “tax audit”. As the name suggests, a tax audit is a review of business or professional accounts carried out by a taxpayer for income tax purposes. This simplifies the income calculation for filing an income tax return.

OBJECTIVE


Who is required to undergo a tax audit?

Taxpayers must undertake a tax audit if sales or gross revenues exceed Rs 1 crore during the fiscal year. However, in certain other circumstances, taxpayers may need to verify their accounts.

Every person who earns income from a business or profession is obliged to keep his books for carrying out tax audits, except for those who prefer alleged taxation under Articles 44AD, 44ADA, 44AE of the Income Tax Act since 1961

Taxpayers who are obliged to carry out tax audits are:

  • Management assistants with total sales in excess of Rs. 1 crore in the previous year. The tax audit limit of Rs 1 crore has been increased to Rs 5 crore from AY 2020-21 (FY 2019-20) if the taxpayer’s cash income is limited to 5% of gross income or sales and if the taxpayer’s cash payment is limited to 5% of the total payment.
  • A worker with a gross income of more than Rs. 50 lakhs in the previous year.
  • However, each appraiser who elects Sections 44ADA and 44AD claims that their income is less than the profit calculated for alleged taxation and that the income exceeds the amount taxed under the Income Tax Act.
  • Any appraiser who selects Sections 44AE, 44B, 44BB but claims that their income is less than the previous year’s profit calculated using this Section.

What is an audit report?

Tax auditors will submit their reports in the prescribed form, which can be Form 3CA or Form 3CB, where:

The CA 3CA form is given when someone in a business or profession has been authorized to verify their account under another law.

Form № 3CB is given when a person involved in a business or profession is not required to check their account under other laws.

For one of the audit reports mentioned above, the tax auditor must submit the required data on Form  3 CD which is part of the audit report.

How and when should the tax audit report be submitted?

Tax auditors will submit online tax audit reports with their credentials as “Chartered Accountants”. Taxpayers also need to add CA details to their registration portal. After the tax inspector has uploaded the audit report, the report must be accepted / rejected by the taxpayer on their registration portal. If it is rejected for any reason, all procedures must be followed again until the taxpayer has received the taxpayer’s report.

Retribution for not filing or delaying the submission of tax audit reports

However, if a taxpayer who is required to carry out a tax audit fails to do so, at least one of the following actions may be subject to sanctions:

    1. 0.5% of total sales, turnover, or gross sales
    2. Rs 1,50,000
