What is Form 10B ?
If a taxpayer has submitted Form 10A to register as a charity trust or religious institution, or if the taxpayer is already registered, Form 10B allows the taxpayer to submit an audit report. The CA that the taxpayer added under the My CA service has access to Form 10B and is given the appropriate form.
Who may use Form 10B?
Form 10B is accessible to CAs who have registered as users on the e-Filing site. In addition, the taxpayer must assign the form to the CAs before they can access, update, evaluate, and submit it.
When must Form 10B be filed?
The accounts for the year must be audited by a CA if the total revenue of a trust or institution is calculated without taking Sections 11 and 12 into consideration and exceeds the maximum amount exempt from income tax in any particular financial year. The person must submit the Form 10B, duly completed, signed, and validated by the CA, along with the receipt for the specified income and the income return in order to comply with this requirement.
