what is assessment year and previous year ?

Answer Posted / siddhant

Assessment Year
Income-tax is an annual tax imposed separately for each assessment year (also called the tax year).
This commences from 1st April and ends on the next 31st March.
Previous Year
This is generally for a period of 12 months ending on 31st March just prior to the commencement of the assessment year.
In the case of a source of income coming into existence in the middle of the year,
“This may not run for a full period of 12 months from 1st April to the following 318t March.”
In General, the “previous year” is also referred to as the “Accounting Year” or the “Income Year”.

Sir, We purchased coal from NCL on CST basis. An incentive is paid on the basis of performance basis of NCL. NCL Raise there incentive bill for Rs. 1000+CST2% Rs.20 Total Rs. 1020/-. But As per Our Calculation, Incentive bill should be Rs. Basic 900+18 (CST)total Rs. 918. We argue and disputed and paid only Rs. 918/- . After Some time they also agree that incentive amount should be Rs. 900+CST but Now they revised the bill like this Basic Incentive Rs. 900+CST Rs.20/- (Original Tax value). And now they are demanding C for with CST 20/- but our pleas is that we are not liable for the mistakes made by the NCL and will issue C for for Rs. 18 Only. Now They are demanding C for for difference of Rs. 2 of CST. My Question is what should be the actually value of C form for CST ie. Rs. 18 or 20. considering the fact that we accounted only rs. 918/- in books and disputed is resolved after one year for basic value.
