Hon'able Smt. Nirmala Sitaraman Ji, Union Finance Minister, Ministry of Finance, Govt. of India, North Block, New Delhi - 110001 Email ID - fmo.nic.in Respected Mam, Re: Further Extension of due dates for filing of both Income Tax Returns & Tax Audit Reports for FY 2019-20 (AY 2020-21) We are grateful to you that due to the ongoing pandemic various date including filing of Income Tax returns for FY 2019-20 (AY 2020-21) have been extended till 30th Nov, 2020 (irrespective of type of taxpayer) and filing of Tax Audit reports till 31st Oct, 2020 under Covid-19 relief measures. However, looking at the current scenario country is still fighting from the pandemic which has vastly affected the nation as a whole. Such a situation has led to high emphasis on taking various precautions in order to maintain hygiene along with social distancing. Therefore it has been quite difficult for the assessee to get his accounts audited and returns filed till the revised due dates. Hence, as professionals and responsible citizens, we would like to respect you for further extension of due dates to 31st Mar, 2021 for filing of both Income Tax returns and Tax Audit reports for FY 2019-20 (AY 2020-21) and providing aid to the assessee under such a challenging period. Thanking You, Yours Sincerely, For UDAIPUR TAX BAR ASSOCIATION
