Exemption under section 35AC: specified project eligibility extended and maximum sanctioned project cost increased. Exemption under the Income-tax Act is extended for the Ekal Vidyalaya Project run by Bhartiya Jan Seva Sansthan in specified backward and tribal areas of South Gujarat for a further three-year period, on the National Committee's recommendation under the Income-tax Rules; the notification amends the earlier specification by substituting the previously stated maximum project cost with a higher revised maximum.
