Transfer pricing and cross-border tax Became Form 147
Form 15CC
Quarterly statement to be furnished by an authorised dealer in respect of remittances made for the quarter of ………….. of ……… . (Financial Year)
What this form is
Form 15CC belongs to the regime of the Income-tax Act, 1961. The same ground is now covered by Form 147 of the Income-tax Rules, 2026. It is a periodic statement. It reports what happened in a period whether or not anything is owed at the end of it. The person who pays fills this in, not the person who is paid — so if you are the one waiting for it, you are waiting on somebody else’s compliance.
Which provision requires it
Neither side of the department’s description names a section or a rule, so there is nothing here we can point at without guessing. The enabling provision is on the form itself.
What it became under the 2026 Rules
The description changed with the number, and the change is worth reading: the 2026 wording points at the Income-tax Act, 2025, and a great deal of what used to sit in a section of the 1961 Act now sits in a Schedule.
| Under the 2026 Rules | What the department calls it |

| Form 147 | Quarterly statement to be furnished by an authorised dealer in respect of remittances made for the quarter of ………….. of (Tax Year) |
Where you meet it
You meet it when money, a related party or a permanent establishment sits on the other side of a border. It usually has to be in place before the transaction, not after it, and the department reads it against the treaty as well as the Act.

Get the form
Published by the Income Tax Department. The link goes to their file, not a copy of it — a form is revised without notice and a stale copy is worse than none. Both are here because a notice, an order or a judgment may name either number.
What here is the department’s and what is ours. The form number, the sentence describing it, and the pairing of the old form with the form it became are all taken from the Income Tax Department’s own published forms concordance, and are reproduced as the department wrote them — including its abbreviations and its occasional typing errors. Everything else on this page is ours: the plain-English account of what the form is, the reading of which provision requires it, the grouping the form sits in, the note on where you meet it, and the selection of cases. The department has not said that this form serves that section; we have read that off the description and off its own section concordance, and we can be wrong. Before you rely on any of it, open the form.
