appropriate facility for allowing the electronic filing of this form has not yet
been operationalised due to technical difficulties and therefore the concerned
assessees have not been able to make compliance within the prescribed date. In
consideration of the same, the Board in exercise of powers conferred under
section 119 of the Income-tax Act, 1961, has decided to extend the due date of
filing Form 49C for the financial year 2011-12, up to 30th September, 2012.
3. The Board has further decided that for the financial year
2011-12, Form 49C can be filed in 'paper mode' instead of filing it
electronically with digital signatures. Such Form 49C (in Paper mode) should be
sent at the following address by 'Registered Post' or 'Speed Post':
