Notes on Clauses:

Clause 73 of the Bill seeks to amend section 211 of the Income-tax Act relating to instalments of advance tax and due dates.

Clause (a) of sub-section (1) of the said section provides that all the assessees, except those referred to in clause (b), are liable to pay advance tax in four instalments during each financial year and also provides the due dates for the payments and amounts payable.

Clause (b) of sub-section (1) of the said section provides that an eligible assessee engaged in an eligible business referred to in section 44AD is liable to pay advance tax in a single instalment on or before the 15th of March every financial year.

It is proposed to amend the said clause (b) so as to provide that the assessee who declares profits and gains in accordance with the provisions of sub-section (1) of section 44ADA, shall also be liable to pay advance tax in one instalment on or before the 15th of March every financial year.

This amendment will take effect from 1st April, 2017 and will, accordingly, apply in relation to the assessment year 2017-2018 and subsequent years.
