Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions on taxation, GST, audit and financial compliance — answered by our team.

The Annual Information Statement (AIS) consolidates financial data reported to the Income Tax Department by banks, employers, registrars and other reporting entities. Mismatches occur when income reported in your ITR differs from data in AIS — typically due to timing differences, unreported interest income, capital gains from mutual funds or securities, or errors by reporting entities. It is important to reconcile AIS data before filing to avoid scrutiny notices.

Businesses in Surat — particularly in manufacturing, trading and real estate — must regularly reconcile GSTR-2B (auto-drafted ITC) with purchase registers to ensure Input Tax Credit claims are accurate. Under e-invoicing mandates, eligible taxpayers must generate IRNs through the IRP portal for B2B invoices. Failure to reconcile can result in excess ITC reversals during assessments. Monthly GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B filings must also align to avoid mismatches flagged by the GST portal.

Statutory auditors are required to evaluate a company's internal control systems as part of their audit procedures under SA 315. Weak internal controls — such as lack of segregation of duties, inadequate authorization procedures or incomplete reconciliations — increase audit risk and may result in expanded substantive testing. For growing businesses, establishing documented control frameworks helps ensure audit readiness and supports accurate financial reporting.

Advance tax is payable in four instalments (June, September, December and March) based on estimated annual income. Poor planning often results in large lump-sum payments in March, straining working capital — particularly for businesses with seasonal revenue cycles. By estimating tax liability early and aligning advance tax payments with cash flow, businesses can avoid interest under Sections 234B and 234C while maintaining liquidity throughout the financial year.
