Notification No. 23/2022 [F. No. 370142/8/2022-TPL-Pt.VII] / GSR 252(E)

Income-tax (5th Amendment) Rules, 2022

What this is

Notification No. 23/2022 [F. No. 370142/8/2022-TPL-Pt.VII] / GSR 252(E) was published on 1 April 2022. Its subject is Income-tax (5th Amendment) Rules, 2022.

This amends the Income-tax Rules. What it changes is the Rules, not the Act — and a rule can never take away what the section gives.

The instrument itself

The department publishes this one as a scanned document rather than as text, so there is nothing here for us to reproduce. The signed document is on the department’s own site — this file.

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.
