Under which act will you get the benefit?
The government has told that a new section Section 194P has been added to the Income Tax Act, 1961, under which senior citizens will get this benefit.
CBDT gave information
Giving information, the Central Board of Direct Taxes has told that a notification has been issued regarding this. Apart from this, amendments have also been made in Rule 31, Rule 31A, Form 16 and 24Q and this sector has been operationalized.
Made many promises
The last date to start manufacturing for tax benefits has been extended by 1 year. Now its last date has been made 31 March 2024. The Income Tax Act, along with making provisions for tax on the income of citizens, also provides many concessions and exemptions. Tax payers also get a lot of relief from these concessions and exemptions. Keeping this in mind, an important decision was taken by the Modi government in the budget of 2018.
