The CBDT extended the deadline for completing tax papers for international remittances on Monday. The tax agency stated in a statement that filing Form 15CA/15CB electronically is required under the Income Tax Act of 1961.

Before sending the copy to the authorised dealer for any international transfer, taxpayers must first upload the Form 15CA, along with the Chartered Accountant Certificate in Form 15CB, if applicable, to the e-filing platform.

Manual Filing of Tax Forms 15CA/15CB for Foreign Remittance Extended

Due to issues reported by taxpayers with electronic filing of Forms 15CA/15CB on the web www.incometax.gov.in, the CBDT had previously decided that taxpayers could submit Forms 15CA/15CB in manual format to an authorised dealer until June 30th.

It has now been decided to push out the deadline to July 15th. As a result, taxpayers can now submit the aforementioned Forms to authorised dealers in manual format until July 15th.

Authorized merchants are encouraged to accept such Forms for foreign remittances until July 15th. On the new e-filing platform, there will be an option to upload these forms at a later time for the purpose of generating the Document Identification Number.

Form 15CA is a declaration of remitter that is used to collect information on payments that are taxable in the hands of non-resident recipients. Form 15 CB is a form that requires a Chartered Accountant’s signature. This is a document that certifies your tax rates and the type of tax you paid. When filing Form 15CA, certain details from Form 15CB are necessary.

PhonePe ties with Flipkart to digitise Cash-on-Delivery payments, BFSI News, ET BFSI

[ad_1]

Read More/Less


PhonePe, digital payments platform today partnered with Flipkart to launch contactless Scan and Pay for Flipkart’s pay-on-delivery orders.

PhonePe’s dynamic QR code solution will enable customers who earlier opted for cash on delivery to pay digitally through any UPI app at the time of delivery. This will help reduce personal contact while ensuring safety, and drive contactless payments for customers who are traditionally more comfortable with cash on delivery.

Ankit Gaur, Director of Business, PhonePe said, “Digital payments adoption has become widespread over the past few years thanks to UPI. However, there still continues to be a preference for cash on delivery among some customers at the time of delivery. Digitising these cash-based payments would give a major boost to not just e-commerce but also contribute to the larger goal of Digital India. Our partnership with Flipkart to enable contactless and safe payments for its Pay on Delivery customers is a big step in that direction. Our solution not just offers a seamless and contactless payment experience to customers but also helps to reduce cash handling costs for e-commerce and logistics companies.”

Ranjith Boyanapalli, Head – Fintech and Payments Group at Flipkart said, “As the lines between e-commerce marketplace and digital payments continue to converge, it becomes imperative to solve for customers’ evolving needs and attitudes. While the pandemic has urged several consumers to make a shift to online shopping, some trust deficit during checkout remains in pockets. With ‘pay-on-delivery’ technology, we want to ensure that customers have peace of mind with their payments and at the same time can shop within the safety of their homes.”

PFRDA Revises Premature Exit Rules For NPS Lite Swavalamban Subscribers, Details Inside

[ad_1]

Read More/Less


Investment

oi-Vipul Das

|

The premature exit regulation for NPS Lite Swavalamban scheme subscribers has been changed by the Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA). NPS Lite subscribers can now exit before the statutory 25-year period if their accumulated pension corpus is less than Rs 1 lakh and if they are not eligible to migrate to the Atal Pension Yojana, according to a new law set by the regulator.

PFRDA Revises Premature Exit Rules For NPS Lite Swavalamban Subscribers

According to the Circular. No. PFRDA/2021/21/SUP-NPST/1 issued on July 02, 2021, PFRDA has clarified that “as per the 6th Amendment of Exit Regulations, the Swavalamban Subscribers whose accumulated pension wealth do not exceed one lakh rupees and if they are not eligible to migrate to Atal Pension Yojana (APY), can opt to prematurely exit with lump sum payment.”

The regular further added that “those eligible Subscribers as mentioned above are not required to continue in the Swavalamban scheme for minimum period of twenty-five years irrespective of the receipt of Govt of India (GoI) co-contribution under Swavalamban by them. However, if GoI’s co-contribution was availed by those eligible Subscribers and the same shall be deducted along with the returns generated from the corpus at the time of their exit.”

NPS: Check Conditions To Withdraw Entire Accumulated Pension Without Purchasing Annuity

For calculating the overall corpus for premature exit from NPS Lite, PFRDA has also stated with an example that “the accumulated corpus of those Swavalamban Subscribers is to be calculated after deducting Government’s co-contribution, if any, and the returns thereon. For example, a Swavalamban Subscriber who is aged 43 Years (who could not be migrated to APY) has a corpus of Rs 1,04,000 in his Swavalamban PRAN and out of which, GoI’s co-contribution and returns constitute Rs 4500. The Subscriber shall be eligible for premature exit since the accumulated corpus in the PRAN would be Rs 99500 (Rs 104000-Rs 4500=Rs 99500).”

For the submission of withdrawal claims, PFRDA has disclosed that “those Swavalamban Subscribers who fulfill the above criteria, and if they wish to prematurely exit, can submit their withdrawal claims to the associated POPs/Aggregators. Central Record Keeping Agency (CRA) is advised to communicate to the eligible Swavalamban Subscribers and POP/Aggregators about the clarification thus provided above.”
