<h1>Proposed changes to Income-tax Rules, 1962: Updates to Form No. 36 and 36A for better appeal and cross-objection details.</h1> Proposed amendments to the Income-tax Rules, 1962, aim to revise Form No. 36 and Form No. 36A, which are used for filing appeals and cross-objections to the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT). These forms, unchanged for a long time, need rationalization to include more detailed information, especially regarding disputed amounts in pending appeals. This information is crucial for the department's litigation management policy. A draft notification detailing these amendments has been published online, inviting comments from stakeholders and the public by July 2, 2018, via email.
