3 DIRECT TAXATION Index Income Tax Return due date is extended to August 5 The Income-tax department on Monday 31st July extended the deadline for filing of I-T returns for the assessment year to August 5. The reason for this extension in deadline is understood to be technical snag developed by the online tax-filing platform, incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in, due to the last-minute rush by tax filers. The government portal had been facing glitches for the past three days, even as the introduction of GST since July 1 kept chartered accountants busy, further aggravating the problems faced by tax filers.

Government plans to amend norms for removal of independent directors The government plans to amend the regulations pertaining to independent directors under the companies law, amid concerns over the procedures followed in appointment and removal of such directors. In recent times, the role of independent directors has come to the fore in the context of corporate governance practices. Section 169 of the Companies Act, 2013 pertains to removal of independent directors. To a query on whether Sebi has sought the involvement of the government for revising the rules in the process of removal of independent directors by amending the Companies Act, the minister replied in the affirmative. Earlier this month, Sebi chairman Ajay Tyagi had said that some people are quite serious when they take up the role of an independent director, but there are plenty who are just eager to join the board as per convenience.

6 ACCOUNTING & AUDIT Index
Reserve Bank extends rest period for auditors to 6 years The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on criticised private and foreign banks for appointing the same set of auditors alternatively after mandatory rest of two years, as such practice establishes a “comfortable relationship that may lead to compromise in strict adherence to audit principles.” As per the extant rules, a statutory auditor has to be appointed for a period of four years and then there should be a rest of two years. Now the central bank extended the rest period to at least six years.According to RBI, in some cases in private and foreign banks, the same audit firm was reappointed after a gap of two years’ rest. In a few other banks, the immediately preceding statutory auditor firm was appointed on completion of the four-year tenure of the current statutory auditor. Newsletter – August 2017
