Commenting on the Income Tax relaxation on donations in the PM CARES Fund Jitendra Solanki, a SEBI registered tax and investment expert said, "The Income Tax Department has taken a right decision as the majority of the taxpayers have already made-up their investment plans for the FY 2019-20 but due to the extension of date for the income tax return (ITR) filing till 30 June 2020, it will also help those who are still falling short of meeting the investments that attract tax exemption. So, those who have met their tax-saving investments can make sure that they can use the amount donated in PM CARES Fund in FY 2020-21 ITR while those who fail to meet tax-saving investment limits can use this in the current ITR." He said that the income tax is 100 per cent exempted under PM CARES Fund 80G deduction law.
