Its subject is Section 35AC, read with Explanation (b) thereto, of the Income-tax Act, 1961 - Eligible Projects or Schemes, Expenditure on - Notified Eligible Projects or Schemes - Purkal Stree Shakti Samiti, Uttarakhand.

What it does

The Central Government, under sub-section (1) read with clause (b) of the Explanation to section 35AC of the Income-tax Act, 1961, notifies the project "Purkal Stree Samiti" carried out by Purkal Stree Shakti Samiti, Village Purkal, Post Office Bhagwantpur, Dehradun, Uttarakhand, for a further period of three years commencing with financial year 2014-15, that is 2014-15, 2015-16 and 2016-17.

Why it was issued

The provisions it speaks to

Left, the provision of the Income-tax Act, 1961 as the instrument itself names it. Right, the section of the Income-tax Act, 2025 that the department’s own concordance maps it to — which is where the same ground is now covered.

The instrument, as the Board published it

The words below are the department’s own, reproduced from its published text. Where the department’s copy carried a publisher’s notes after the instrument, those are not reproduced.

What it changes

The rule numbers are the 1962 Rules’ own, as the notification names them. The right-hand column is the department’s own mapping into the Income-tax Rules, 2026, which renumbered nearly everything.

Rule of the 1962 Rules	Now, in the 2026 Rules
Rule 11M	no counterpart recorded

From when

financial year 2014-15, retrospectively.

What to watch

The further period begins with financial year 2014-15, a year already under way when the notification issued on 11 February 2015, and runs to 2016-17.
The approved cost of Rs. 8.00 crore is inclusive of Rs. 5.00 crore earmarked as corpus fund, and that composition is not altered.
The new period is continuous with the approval ending with financial year 2013-14.

Where you meet it

In a donor's return claiming deduction under section 35AC and in the certificate issued by the Samiti for the year of payment.

What it names

Rules it names. Rule 11M of the Income-tax Rules, 1962. The 1962 Rules were replaced by the Income-tax Rules, 2026, which renumbered nearly everything: a rule number quoted here almost never means the same rule today.

On the same provision

Other instruments in this library that name the same provision of the 1961 Act. They are not necessarily still operative, and a later one may have replaced an earlier one without saying so.
