HATS OFF TO HONY.LT BHAGGURAM MAURYA



 

Our Welfare trust  appreciate the

 

Hony.Lt  for his  donation of a

 Raod to his village. 

 

"We pray the almighty God to give him a good  healthy long life."


Honorary lieutenant Bhagguram Maurya, Used His Pension Money To Construct A Road In His Village 

 

Subedar Major Bhagguram Maurya, retired Jawan of Indian Army living in Himarampur village near Banaras, gave a village-length road gift to his village on the occasion of 70th Independence Day. He has used his hard earned which he got after his retirement from the Indian army. The estimated money to construct the road was around Rs 4,00,000.

Subedar Major Bhagguram Maurya became part of the Indian Army in 1978 and served the country till 2012. He got the medal from President Abdul Kalam in 2002 and President Pranab Mukherjee in 2012.
Before the construction, the condition of the road condition was very bad, after the construction many accidents have also declined. Whenever a vehicle used to pass through this road, dust was clouded. This is the reason that he made the road connecting Babatpur with Rajatalab with the money of his pension. He has invested 4 lakh rupees for the construction of this road.


Now SM Bhagguram Maurya and the rural resident are demanding to install Interlocking Tiles on the road from the Panchayat so that the path becomes better and safer. He told the English newspaper Hindustan Times, “Now I have no money left, otherwise, I would buy them by buying Interlocking Tiles and putting them on. I request the Minister of State for Public Works, Surendra Patel, to arrange interlocking tiles so that the road gets better. I hope they will definitely help us. “

INCOME TAX FOR DEFENCE PENSIONERS

If the total pension income of a defence pensioner is more than 2.5 lacs, they have to file IT return.  Those who have not filed within the due date, they can file now belated return up to Mar 2018.

Many pensioners could not file due  non availability of correct Form 16 from their banks.  As the pension income had increased due to the payment of delinking arrears, an IT return filed with Form 10E will give good amount of Relief u/s 89(1) specially for the pensioners of the rank of Sep, Naik and Havildar and they will get refund if any excess tax recovered by the bank.

It is important that every pensioner should collect Form 16 from bank and submit IT return without fail.

Fortunately, the tax liability will be nil for the AY 2017-18 because of the relief available for delinking arrears.  You can get refund of the excess tax recovered only if you file IT return.

Those who want to file IT return now may contact Exwel Trust for help and guidance.

It is seen from the above table that the Sep and NK get full refund of the tax paid and the Hav Rs.30,023 as refund out of Rs.38,818 as tax paid.  This is applicable to all defence pensioners of the rank of Sep, Nk and Hav and equivalent ranks in other services.

TAX RELIEF ON DELINKING ARREARS

The delinking arrear is calculated from the  year 2005 onward. Therefore the Delinking arrears paid in Dec 2016 has to be spread out from 2005 and relief calculated properly for claiming relief u/s 89(1).

For an arrears of Rs.88,155 for a Sepoy the Relief available will be Rs.3669.
For an arrears of Rs.1,40792 for a Nk, the Relief available will be Rs.11,388.
For an arrears of Rs.1,78,044 for a Hav the Relief available will be Rs.30,023.

This article is published for benefit of those who have not filed tax return or who have filed tax return without preparing 10E.(Relief u/s 89(1)  You can re-file now with 10E and get refund.

Normally filing income tax after the due date will attract interest @ of 1% for the tax liability.  But in the case of Defence pensioners, who are filing with 10E, only small amout of interest will come if they happen to pay tax after adjusting the relief.  Otherwise they will get refund of the tax recovered.

FILING OF INCOME TAX RETURN AFTER THE DUE DATE I.E. AFTER 05.08.2017


FILING OF INCOME TAX RETURN AFTER THE DUE DATE I.E. AFTER 05.08.2017

Now that the last date for filing IT return is over. (i.e. 05.08.2017).  Even now it is not late to file your return, if you have not done so.    You can re-file your return with 10E (if you have filed within the due date) and get refund.

This article is published for the benefit of those who missed to file knowingly or unknowingly.  It is better to know the consequences for not filing tax return and the conditions for filing revised return.

If you are affected, please read this article carefully, and contact Exwel Trust if you want any help in this regard.

NOT FILING RETURN WITHIN THE TIME ALLOWED:

When an individual has not filed the return within the time allowed u/s 139(1), he can file Belated  Return u/s 139(4).

A belated return can be filed before the end of relevant Assessment year.  The present case it is 31.3.2018.

CONSEQUENCES FOR NOT FILING WITHIN DUE DATE U/S 139(1)

(a)    Interest under Sec.234A shall be charged at 1% per month or part there of on the tax payable on self assessment.
(b)   The benefit of carry forward of losses will be lost.
(c)    The right to revise the return of income u/s 139(5) will be lost.

CONSEQUENCES WHEN THE RETURN IS NOT FILED

(a)    When the Assessee is required to file return u/s 139, and the same is not filed before the end of the relevant AY he is liable to pay a penalty of Rs.5000 u/s 271F.
(b)   Best judgment assessment can be made u/s 144.
(c)    Prosecution u/s 276 CC is also attracted in some cases.

CONDITIONS FOR FILING REVISED RETURN U/S 139(5)

(a)    The original return should have been filed within the due date u/s 134(1) or within time limit specified u/s 139(4).
(b)   There  should be an omission or wrong statement in the original return filed.

The revised return shall be filed before the expiry of one year from the end of the relevant AY.

REFILING OF IT RETURN SPECIFIC TO DEFENCE PENSIONERS FOR THE AY 2017-18

This is the first time that almost 90% of the defence pensioners have been taxed due to the payment of delinking arrears, OROP arrears and 7 CPC arrears.

1.      For example a ‘Y” group Naik with 17 years service was paid a total pension (including all arrears) of Rs.3,93,570 and paid a tax of Rs.14,324 as per F.16 instead of Rs.9638 as tax.  After filing IT return with 10E, he got a refund of Rs,9630/-.  If he has not filed IT return with 10E (Relief u/s 89(1) he would not have got any refund.
2.      Same way another ‘Y’ group Naik with 16 years service was paid a total pension of Rs.3,81,980 (as per F.16) and deducted a tax of Rs.26396 wrongly.  (The correct tax amount should have been only Rs.8444)  Both the cases from the same bank. (SBI Sankarankoil)  After filing IT return with 10E he got a refund of Rs.26,400/-.

Read these two examples from a same bank.  For an income of Rs.3,93570, they have charged Rs.14324 as tax instead of Rs.9638, whereas for Rs.3,81,980, the same bank had charged Rs.26,396 as tax instead of Rs.8444 as tax.  (Rs.17,952 excess tax recovered)

These examples show that all these low paid pensioners have been taxed without any basis by the bank. If a proper IT return is filed with 10E, they all will get refund of the tax paid. The Banks have performed badly with respect to the issue of correct Form 16.

Many defence pensioners, have not been guided properly therefore they have paid tax, instead of getting refund.  Many have not filed return at all.  This article is to remind them that they can pay even now.

It shows that the banks deduct excess tax and boldly show on their own F16 and never bother to correct it later.  The innocent pensioners are sufferers.  Nobody is pointing out this mistake and question the bank for issuing such an erroneous Form 16.  We have come across many similar cases.

The only remedy is to file IT return and get refund.  Those who have filed return within the due date without 10E can re-file their return with 10E now and get relief u/s 89(1) and get refund.  You can re-file up to 31.3.2018.  Please read the conditions for refilling and act accordingly.

MANY DEFENCE PENSIONERS HAVE FILED RETURN AND PAID TAX INSTEAD OF GETTING REFUND.  THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR REFILING & GET REFUND.

Please read the consequences for not filing return and not filing even before the end of relevant AY.  Please read the conditions for filing revised return u/s 139(5) also.
