Subject: Request to extend due date for submission of FORM GSTR-9, 9A and 9C under GST for the FY 2020-21.

Greetings from the Tax Bar Association-Bhilwara-Raj. 

Tax Bar Association (TBA) established in the year 1990 is the first & only Apex Regional Body of Advocates, Chartered Accountants, Company Secretaries, CMA & Tax Practitioners of Bhilwara District-Rajasthan, having membership strength of more than 200 professionals.

The prime objective of Association is not only to work for.the cause of its professionals but also to educate the public at large and to act as a catalyst between Citizens & Government Authorities. TBA regularly organizes seminars, lectures on tax advocacy and legal awareness across Bhilwara District.

We respectfully bring to your kind attention as under.

a. That the due date for submission of Annual Return in Form GSTR-9, 9A and Reconciliation Statement in Form GSTR-9C (self-certified) reconciling the Annual Turnover with audited financial statement is 31st, 2021 for the period from 01.04.2020 to 31.03.2021.

b. That due date for submission of Tax Audit Report Balance Sheet, Profit 4, and Loss Account under Income Tax Act, 1961 for A.Y. 2021-22 is 15th, 2022. The Audit work includes verification of Turnover and ITC on purchases and expenses as well.

In view of the above, the due date for Tax Audit under Income Tax Act being later than due dates of submission of GSTR-9, 9A & 9C with Audited financial statements, it is practically not possible to submit GSTR-9, 9A and 9C by 31st Dec., 2021 in large number of taxpayers as audit work is likely to be completed during the period 01.01.2022 to 15.01.2022.

We, therefore, sincerely pray that due date for submission of GSTR-9, 9A and 9C is to be extended by two Months i.e. up-to 28th February, 2022, so that reconciliation work with Audited Financial Statements can be completed by the taxpayers after completion of their Tax Audit Work/ Co. Audit Work.

We assure you our best possible co-operation in re-building our most beloved motherland.

Thanking you and obliged

Yours truly

For and on Behalf of

Tax Bar Association, Bhilwara (Rajasthan)
