The Union Budget may not make any change in the 45-day pay rule in Income Tax law as the government has amended the Company Law order and notified new form for reporting by companies about delay in payment to micro and small enterprise suppliers. Tax and legal experts are divided over how the change will impact compliance burden for large companies.
The government is racking its brains for options to relax the 45-day payment rule to MSMEs that has come into effect from April 1, 2023, as the rule may disrupt business practices due to its severity and lack of clarity. In order to provide relief to businesses the government is mulling diluting the rule in the Union Budget after the elections.
