CBDT grants further relaxation in electronic filing of Income Tax Forms 15CA/15CB

By: Shree1news, 20 JUL 2021

As per the Income-tax Act, 1961, there is a requirement to furnish Form 15CA/15CB electronically. Presently, taxpayers upload the Form 15CA, along with the Chartered Accountant Certificate in Form 15CB, wherever applicable, on the e-filing portal, before submitting the copy to the authorized dealer for any foreign remittance.

In view of the difficulties reported by taxpayers in electronic filing of Income Tax Forms 15CA/15CB on the portal www.incometax.gov.in, it had earlier been decided by CBDT that taxpayers could submit Forms 15CA/15CB in manual format to the authorised dealer till 15^th July, 2021.

It has now been decided to extend the aforesaid date to 15^th August, 2021. In view thereof, taxpayers can now submit the said Forms in manual format to the authorized dealers till 15^th August, 2021. Authorized dealers are advised to accept such Forms till 15^th August, 2021 for the purpose of foreign remittances. A facility will be provided on the new e-filing portal to upload these forms at a later date for the purpose of generation of the Document Identification Number.
