DUE DATES OF GSTR 3B AND GSTR 1 UPTO JULY 2020


There has been lot of confusion regarding due dates of GST returns and many people are in misconception that the due dates have been extended till september 2020.
Well not all types of returns have been provided with extension and I will try to clear all that doubts in this article with providing proper interest rates.

Disclaimer: These rates are only for Taxpayers filing returns on monthly basis.

Government have provided opportunity to taxpayers to file all pending returns starting form July 2017 to July 2020 with Late fee of maximum Rs.500 up to 30.09.2020. If you have Nil returns then your late fees will be zero. If you did not file your GST Returns till 30.09.2020, then you might have to pay late fees as usual from the actual due date of respective month.

There has been lot of questions asked regarding refund of Late fees which have been already paid by the tax payers who have filed returns before waiving of late fees. Earlier in Dec 2019, there was a notification regarding waiving of late fees for filing returns till Mar 2019. But no refund has been issued till date for late fees who have already paid before Dec 2019. So with this assumptions we could conclude that there will be no refunds of these late fees in my opinion.

IND AS 19 - ACCOUNTING OF DEFINED BENEFIT PLAN AND ASSET CEILING

First we will see the difference between Defined Contribution Plan and Defined Benefit Plan.  I will take directly in simple terms, in Defined benefit plan only employer contributes to the fund until retirement  of the employee and after retirement  employee is eligible to receive monthly payments  or lump sum   employment  from the employer. A good example  of Defined Benefit plan is Pension.  In Defined Contribution Plan, both employer and employees make contributions to the fund and this contribution is used to  to supplement their future social security benefits, as s ocial security  alone is typically not enough to pay for the average retirement. Defined Benefit Plan In Defined Benefit Plan, employer has the obligation to provide agreed benefits to the employee after retirement even if the funds are insufficient. When you assume about Define Benefit Plan, you have to consider both Liability and Asset         ...

TAX REGIME for the FY 2019-20 and FY 2020-21, Benefits available for taxpayers

  After announcing Budget 2020 by Nirmala Sitaram, Finance Minister, people are not able to balance the options to choose the tax regimes. What is difference in new and old tax regimes? do the tax rates really have cut down?. The Answer may be "yes", But on the other side it seems that taxes in new tax regime are being collected in a way by showing you low tax rates in one hand and taking all your benefits from the other hand. Few people are confused about changes in tax regime of FY 2019-20 and by seeing budget 2020; people like me were still confused whether what rates are applicable and what benefits were provided for FY 2019-20.

Additional Income Tax Deductions for Individuals for the FY 2021-2022

As per income tax rates the income above 10 Lacs is subject to 30% tax if you select Old regime. If your income has exceeded more than 10 Lacs you have entered in 30% slab. So I would give you some deductions which you can claim by investing and can save tax upto 30%. 1)       Section 80CCD (1b): Contribution to pension schemes as notified by the central government (Self investment in Tier-1 of NPS). This section provides additional deduction of 50000 . This has a fixed lock-in period until the subscriber reaches the age of 60 years. 2)       HRA Exemption(Salaried Employees): If you are living in a rented house of Rs.20,000/-p.m and submit hose rent receipts to your company, you can claim HRA exemption upto 100000. 3)       Housing Loan Interest: You can claim interest on housing loan upto 200000 . every year.
