the FY must be changed to Jan-Dec. Internationally it is followed. Lot so time will be saved, further budget should be presented in after monsoon is over and accordingly Gov can foresee how the next fiscal would be. All changes in Budget should be made effective from 1st Jan. Advance tax date should further be changed because after monsoon and festive season corporates are making good earnings and accordingly a part of revenue predicted in the budget can be realised in between Jan-Mar

as a central government employee who has worked in the accounts section for more than 8 years , i think the change of financial year is a welcome step and a break from the past of british rulers. changing of financial year is a sure step in this modern world and a more opt move which may facilitate a lot of easy accounting proceduces and accounts work for the accounts related staff. income tax calculations can be made more esay to calculate just by this change . hats off to THE PM .

this is about IDS.there are no provision in the site to write about this, but related to finance ,income tax officers giving talk on awareness about IDS.I know at least in places -two pvt medical colleges gave lecture to doctors with manage ment by side of them .it was strange .may be few doctors generating black money ,rest all are on salary.it was tha management to whom they should have lecturing,are they together,does govt know?

SOS Team of our organisation "Rastriya Dinsarshika Prashar Manch" has come from Aurangabad is camping in Delhi for past 3 day to meet the committee members to put forward argument for accepting "National Calender" https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_national_calendar as new financial year but has been unable to do so. Please contact us 9811046053

Respected Chairman of the committee.

On behalf of my organisation "Rastriya DinDarshika Prashar Manch" I would like to make following representation in the subject under discussion.

National Calender of India was adopted by act of Parliament many decade ago but sadly it has not given due recognition both by Government agency and private sector. While recommending new financial year please consider the National Calender as the new financial year of India which enhance pride of nation.

It will save lot of duplication & multiple compliances under various Act & laws and also save huge cost involve in Audit/review etc.

We think it should be in line with international Standards for eg 1 jan to 31 Dec

Financial year is from April to march because the economic dependency is on the agriculture which directly depends on the monsoon(even today), but with the rise of technology and innovation this dependency will decrease, and in future it is pretty sure that the face of agriculture will change completely(it has to be), it would be better to change the financial year now...because it will help the methods other than the agriculture to play the better role in the economic growth of India

Please do change the financial year from 1st jan instead of 1st april. this will help us to streamline our financial year with global financial year.....
on a lighter note: 1st April was supposed to be fool's year..
