Income Tax – Last Date for filing returns – Extended in Orissa due to floods – what about Gujarat Floods?

The CBDT has under Section 119, extended the last date for obtaining tax audit report under section 44AB of the Income Tax Act, 1961 as well as for filing of returns of income required to be furnished by 30th September, 2008 to 31st October 2008, in the cases of income-tax assessees in the State of Orissa, on consideration of the reports of disruption caused due to floods in the State.

The Gujarat representation seems to have gone unconsidered – maybe they can still do it today.
