Tax Audit Extension — एक और पहलू

एक सवाल बार-बार आता है—क्या Tax Audit की due date बढ़ाने की मांग व्यापारियों की समस्या है या Tax Professionals की?

हर व्यापारी का सामान्यतः एक ही Tax Audit होता है। यदि वे अपना data कुछ दिन देर से भी देते हैं तो उनके एक ऑडिट को पूरा करने का समय उनके अनुसार फिर भी उपलब्ध हो सकता है।कोई भी कह सकता है कि क्या एक ऑडिट के लिए 10 दिन का समय काफ़ी नहीं है !!!

लेकिन Tax Auditors के सामने समस्या अलग है। हमें एक साथ एक से ज़्यादा संख्या में Audits पूरे करने होते हैं और हमारा मुद्दा यही है कि जिस काम के लिए पहले लगभग 60 दिन का practical window मिलता था, वह अब प्रभावी रूप से करीब 30 दिन रह गया है।

इसलिए एक महीने के extension की मांग मुख्यतः Tax Professionals के लिए पर्याप्त working time की मांग है।

हम अतिरिक्त सुविधा नहीं, पर्याप्त समय मांग रहे हैं।

An extension of the Tax Audit due date till 31st October 2026 would provide much-needed relief and enable professionals to complete audits with due diligence and accuracy.

#ExtendTaxAuditDueDate @IncomeTaxIndia @FinMinIndia

[Abhishek Raja "Ram" | Revolutionary Raja Ram @abhishekrajaram]

Attaching a copy of the letter by then ICAI President Nanda Sir to the CBDT Chairman from the previous year in Sep-2025.

Please refer to page 2 of the letter, which explains that the law requires a "two-month" gap between the ITR filing date for Non-Corporate and the Tax Audit Report date. ICAI therefore requested an extension, which was later granted, and the date was extended.

This year, a new date of 31-Aug was introduced; therefore, the mandatory gap of two months has been reduced to one month. This was never the expectation of the change. The result is that many members are feeling overburdened and under pressure.

If last year's view of ICAI is correct, then this year also ICAI should come forward and request an extension.

Based on the calls and messages received, I feel the common member is under pressure and is avoiding writing anything publicly, though vocal in person.

ICAI and the Council should open a dialogue and listen to members. After hearing members’ views, they should make the final decision.

रही बात मेरी, अगर मेरे एक भी member को stress feel हो रहा है और extension की ज़रूरत है, तो मैं अपने member के साथ खड़ा हूँ !! हालाँकि मुझे अपने लिए कोई extension नहीं चाहिए, क्योंकि मैं Income Tax और Compliance practice में नहीं हूं। पर अगर कोई member लड़ रहा है , तो मुझे अपने साथ ही समझे !!

और ये आखरी शायरी उनके लिए जो इस लड़ाई को कमज़ोर करने की कोशिश में लगे हुए हैं :

"तुम्हारी सोच के सांचे में ढल नहीं सकता,
ज़बान काट लो, लहजा बदल नहीं सकता।
मुझे भी मोम का पुतला समझ रहे हो क्या,
तुम्हारी लौ से ये लोहा पिघल नहीं सकता!"

The @IncomeTaxIndia received big bunch of representations ,though it’s prerogative of @FinMinIndia to give relaxation. But highly expected that if extending or not extending this must be conveyed latest by Monday 21 Sept.Anxiety is acting as coercion. @practice_guru @theicai
