Tax Updates

The Indian government has introduced several changes to the tax laws, including the Goods and Services Tax (GST) and the Income Tax Return (ITR) filing process. The GST law now allows buyers to claim input tax credit, even if the supplier has defaulted on their tax payments. Additionally, the ITR filing season for the assessment year 2026-27 has begun, and taxpayers who have received a Section 143(2) notice for the assessment year 2025-26 must respond promptly to avoid any penalties. The government has also introduced new rules for financial transactions, including changes to the Aadhaar update process, passport applications, and credit card rewards. Furthermore, the government has announced that delayed PF/ESI deposits can be disallowed during ITR processing, and the Income Tax Department has introduced an e-filing vault to help taxpayers stay compliant.
