𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗔𝗧𝗢 𝗚𝘂𝗶𝗱𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗜𝗩𝗔 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗕𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘀 Following last month’s overview of Practical Compliance Guideline PCG 2024/D2 (PCG), we remind clients and accountants that while the PCG provides insight into the ATO's view on risk, it is not law. The classification of a client’s situation as "higher risk" or "lower risk" does not definitively mean Part IVA will or will not apply, nor does it indicate any wrongdoing. The PCG outlines that certain arrangements can still draw the ATO's attention and potential Part IVA scrutiny, particularly where: Income is retained in a personal services entity (PSE) as part of ‘retention of profits’ arrangements, or Income is redirected to associates of the service provider in ‘income splitting’ arrangements, which may result in a lower overall tax rate or other benefits, such as timing advantages. It is essential for clients and accountants to seek comprehensive advice to ensure their arrangements align with the law, beyond simply fitting within the PCG guidelines. A key concern with the ATO's PCG is its broad coverage, potentially including scenarios that may not typically fall under Part IVA. For example, the PCG includes a case deemed "clearly commercial" but still classified as "high risk." Ensure you’re informed and compliant—understanding the nuances of ATO guidance is critical. #taxcompliance #ATOguidance #PartIVA #accounting #personalservicesincome #businessowners #taxplanning

The Board has noticed instances where trusts or institutions submitted audit reports using Form No. 10B instead of the required Form No. 10BB for the Assessment Year 2023-24, and vice versa. Failure to submit the audit report in the prescribed form could lead to denial of exemption, as it is a necessary condition. To address this, the Central Board of Direct Taxes, under section 119 of the Act, has granted permission for trusts or institutions to rectify this error. Those who submitted Form No. 10B instead of 10BB (or vice versa) by October 31, 2023, may now submit the correct audit report for the Assessment Year 2023-24, in accordance with the applicable form (10B or 10BB) by March 31, 2024. Please refer to CBDT Circular 2/2024 dated March 5, 2024. Ensure the audit report is submitted in the correct prescribed form by March 31, 2024, to claim exemption for the Assessment Year 2023-24.

News Alert for Chartered Accountants (Auditors) Practicing in Pakistan!! It is observed that auditors have been issuing non-standard report formats for Private Companies having paid-up capital less than 1 million rupees. Although such companies are not required to audit financial statements under the Section 223 of Companies Act, 2017. However, for tax purposes all Companies have to submit their audited financial statements together with the return to FBR, as per section 114(2) ‘Return of income’ of Income Tax Ordinance, 2001 read with Income Tax Rule 34(4). Therefore, It has been advised to the Auditors (through ICAP Circular 12 - dated September 12, 2024) to conduct audits in compliance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) issued by the IAASB & adopted by ICAP and include a Unique Document Identification Number (UDIN) on all reports as per ICAP Directive 4.27.

📢 Important Update for Auditors 📢 We are pleased to share ICAP Circular 12 (dated September 12, 2024) regarding the 'Auditor’s Report on Financial Statements Required to be Submitted Together with Tax Return.' It has come to attention that non-standard audit report formats are being issued by auditors of private companies, particularly those with paid-up capital under Rs. 1 million, and entities not registered under the Companies Act, 2017. As per Section 223 of the Companies Act, companies with paid-up capital below Rs. 1 million are not required to audit their financial statements. However, for tax purposes, all companies must submit audited financial statements with their tax return to FBR. 🔍 Key Reminders: - Audits must be conducted in line with ISAs issued by IAASB and adopted by ICAP. - Auditor’s reports should comply with these standards, regardless of whether they are done under the Companies Act or other applicable laws. - Don’t forget to include UDIN on all auditor’s reports in line with ICAP Directive 4.27. Let’s maintain professionalism and ensure compliance with the set standards to avoid any issues. #Audit #ICAP #FBR #TaxCompliance #UDIN #FinancialStatements #ISAs

Colleagues, I am running a webinar this week that makes it clear settlements against the ATO aren't just reserved for the "big end of town". Family businesses and private groups can use settlements with the ATO to resolve cases quickly and cost-effectively. You can also lock the ATO in to future tax positions giving clients more protection than usual. In this webinar, I take you through practical requirements of settling with the ATO and the processes that you will need to follow, including the best clauses to negotiate in the settlement deed. 📅 Thursday, 21 November 2024 ⏲️ 1PM to 2PM (AEDST) 🖥️ Zoom This webinar is aimed at Partners and Principals of accounting firms, especially those with clients under audit who can't shake the ATO. Comment "Help Me Settle This" and I'll send you a link to register. #ATO #Tax #audit #dispute #familygroup #HNWI #HWI #accounting #accountant
