25 May 2011 According to me there is a option for provisional assessment under the Income Tax act in which an assessee can mention their estimated income and if the actual income is higher than that the assessee is required to pay additional tax on the excess income and in case of opposite situation the tax paid by the assessee will be refund by the department.
