Amendment of section 10B.
7. In section 10B of the Income-tax Act, in sub-section (1), in the third proviso, for the figures, letters and words "1st day of April, 2011", the figures, letters and words "1st day of April, 2012" shall be substituted.
Notes on Clauses:
Clause 7 of the Bill seeks to amend section 10B of the Incometax Act relating to special provisions in respect of newly established hundred per cent. export oriented undertakings.
The existing provisions provides that no deduction shall be allowed to any undertaking for the assessment year beginning on the 1st day of April, 2011 and subsequent years.
It is proposed to amend the third proviso to sub-section (1) of the said section so as to allow the deduction for the previous year 2010-2011 relevant to assessment year 2011-2012.
This amendment will take effect retrospectively from 1st April, 2009.
