Letter to AO for Delayed Filing of IT Return

Description:

Many of you may not be able to file the Tax Audit Report and Income Tax Return for AY 13-14 on 30.09.2013 (i.e. due date of filing of Return) due to technical error and heavy load on the Income Tax Web Portal for uploading of returns. For the returns which contain Loss from Business or profession, it is compulsory to file Income Tax Return upto due date, otherwise the losses will not be allowed to be carried forward. Further, penalty of Rs. 1.5 lacs may be levied for non-filing of tax audit report upto due date. In order to avoid the possibility of non-carrying forward of losses and paying penalty on non-filing of Tax audit report, it is suggested write a letter to AO describing the reason of non-filing withing due date, as technical error of the system. A draft of the said letter is attached for your help. Everybody who have faced the above problem, should write this letter to AO. #docx
