What this is

Notification No. 217/2015 [F.No.V. 27015/2/2015-SO (NAT.COM)]/SO 2851(E) was published on 16 October 2015. Its subject is का.आ. 2851(अ)-&भारत के , असाधारण, भाग-II, खंड-3, उप-खंड (ii) 6 जनवरी, 2015 को.

What it does

A corrigendum to notification S.O. 95(E) dated 6 January 2015. The title of the project in paragraphs 1 and 6, given as 'Literacy project of running 2890 One Teacher Schools (OTS) at 2890 tribal areas in 6 States', is to be read as 'Literacy project of running 21050 One Teacher Schools (OTS) at 21050 tribal areas in 15 States'. The scale of the notified project is thereby corrected upwards.

Who it reaches

The trust or society carrying out the notified literacy project
Donors claiming deduction for payments to the project
The National Committee for Promotion of Social and Economic Welfare
Assessing Officers testing the project against its notified description

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 department publishes this one only as a PDF, so the words below were read out of that PDF by machine. That reading can carry its own mistakes — a misread number, a broken line. Check the signed document before you rely on a figure in it.

What to watch

The corrigendum states no separate commencement date; it corrects the notification of 6 January 2015 as published.
The correction changes both the number of One Teacher Schools and tribal areas and the number of States, so the project's notified scope is materially wider than as first published.
Only the title of the project in paragraphs 1 and 6 is corrected; the approved cost and period are not touched by this corrigendum.
The Hindi text of the corrigendum is badly rendered in the extract; the English text should be relied on.
The extract does not name the entity carrying out the project, so the parent notification S.O. 95(E) must be consulted.

Where you meet it

In a donor's claim resting on notification S.O. 95(E) and in the description of the project verified in assessment.

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.

What a notification is. A notification is made under a power the Act itself gives, and within that power it is law — unlike a circular, which only binds the department. Its reach is the reach of the enabling provision and no wider, and the date it carries decides from when it works.
