KATRA, Oct 2: The Katra Hotel and Restaurant Association has demanded extension of due date for filing of Income Tax returns for assesses whose accounts are required to be audited, by a period of one month.
In a memorandum submitted to Chairperson Central Board of Direct Taxes, the president of Katra Hotel & Restaurant Association, Sham Lal Kesar, explained that recent incidents of curfew and bandh in Jammu, Kishtwar, Udhampur and Rajouri districts in Jammu region and Pulwama district in Kashmir region led to non finalization of accounts by Auditable assesses and subsequent filing of their Income Tax returns by due date of September 30.
He appealed the CBDT Chairperson to take a lenient view on the matter as far as the assesses of J&K are concerned.
