The one thing every professional is asking for, myself included: if an extension is coming, announce it EARLY. Last-minute notifications create more chaos than the deadline itself.

This isn't about avoiding work. It's about doing it right, not rushed

Hon’ble @IncomeTaxIndia

We sincerely request CBDT to extend the Tax Audit Report due date from 30th Sept to 31st Oct 2026.
Considering the practical difficulties faced by tax professionals and taxpayers, a timely extension will help.

If you are an NRI selling property in India, a single missing document will lock up to 30% of your total sale value in the tax system for over 12 months.

Under Section 195, buyers must deduct TDS on the gross transaction value, not your actual profit. To prevent this cash flow destruction, you must secure a Section 197 Lower TDS Certificate before the sale agreement is signed.

The execution timeline:
1. Apply 4 to 6 weeks before finalizing the sale so the AO can limit TDS strictly to your actual capital gains.

2. Plan your Form 15CA/15CB repatriation paperwork simultaneously.

3. Never rely on claiming an ITR refund later unless you are willing to freeze your capital for an entire assessment year.

One missed application destroys your liquidity. Structure the exit before signing the deed.

Mark My Words: TAR Due Date Is Getting Extended.

I've seen this movie every single year. Same script, same ending.

✅ Writ petitions LIVE in High Courts, driven by regional associations
✅ Tax bars across the country flooding CBDT and the Finance Ministry with representations
✅ The EXACT same fact pattern that forced extensions in 2018, 2019, 2021, and 2025: delayed utilities, a compressed calendar, and genuine hardship on record

CBDT has caved to this pressure every time the ingredients lined up like this. They're lined up again.

But here's what disappoints me: Regional bar associations and local practitioner bodies are the ones doing the heavy lifting in courtrooms. Meanwhile, ICAI the body that represents EVERY practicing CA in this country remains noticeably passive, sticking to polite letters while its members face the heat.

Professionals are left fighting scattered, individual battles for a cause that should have the full, uncompromising weight of our parent institution behind it.

I'm calling it now: an extension is coming. It's not a question of if, it's when. But it shouldn't take this much desperate, grassroots pressure to get there.

One ground reality needs attention:

Many SME CAs in Tier-2 & Tier-3 cities operate with limited skilled manpower. Partners themselves handle a substantial part of audit work.

An extension to 31 Oct 2026 will provide much-needed breathing space.

🚨#ExtendTaxAuditdate

25+ eminent professional bodies have represented before @FinMinIndia @IncomeTaxIndia seeking rationalisation of Tax Audit due dates,for the current as well as future years!!

Gap of 30 days after non-audit ITR deadline is simply too short for quality Tax Audits involving detailed verification, reconciliations & professional responsibility.

During the same month, professionals are also required to handle several other statutory compliances. Pressure is even greater in Tier-2 /Tier-3 cities, where firms generally do not have entirely separate teams/professionals for ITRs,Tax Audits and other compliances @theicai

If Due Date for Tax Audit isnt extended, then Going Concern of many CA firms in our country will be effected.

Harsh but true.

Only 30-40% work has been completed in all CA offices across the country.
