16 Clarification on date of filing return of
income — Press Release No. BSC/SS/GN- 338, dated 22-12-2008.


There have been many instances that returns have been
electronically filed on 30 September, however, the acknowledgement number
generated electronically mentions the date of filing as 1 October. The CBDT has
issued a Press Release to clarify that in all such cases, the date of filing the
return would be considered as 30 September, being filed within due date as
prescribed and would be eligible to all the benefits thereof and consequently no
penal consequences would be attracted and interest u/s.234 would also be averted
to this effect.
