Dear All,
Kindly put this in your WhatsApp status and do not upload any Tax Audit today in support of the Nationwide Pen-Down Strike (24th Sept 2025).
👉 This Govt has been insensitive to the people. Extending the ITR due date by just one day clearly shows their arrogance towards the common people and professionals.
Let’s stay united and make our voice heard. ✊
No Extension of Audit Due Date – We Refuse to Work!
One of our CA colleagues of Surat is no more due to heart attack on Sunday working day.
Condolences to his family for this unbearable loss... 💔🙏
Couldn't believe when I received this message but it is true unfortunately.
As an ICAI Branch Management Committee Member, how do I reply to it ?
How many more heart attacks before you finally extend the due date @FinMinIndia
Dear @theicai Leadership,
Support your members please rather than being silent.
#TaxAuditExtension
Extension of date for TAR is sub judice as many bodies have filed writ petition, we hope CBDT to extend before courts verdict. Else the same shall be decided by courts judgement. ICAI gave the representation to CBDT, extended time for NCE formats, time for MEF.
Members are advised to work keeping in mind the present position & that too with ease of mind.
(Received by CCM)
No hope whatsoever from our leadership.
Why can't ICAI hold a press conference exposing the lapses in Income Tax Portal and raising our voice for extension before @FinMinIndia ?
Request to @theicai - Please strongly represent to @FinMinIndia for a timely Tax Audit Due Date extension.
✉️ Only sending letters by mail or courier won’t make any impact.
✅ A direct meeting with #CBDT Chairman or Finance Minister @nsitharaman is the need of the hour.
