Income tax practioner

Guest (Querist) 30 April 2009 This query is : Resolved
One person having qualification of B.Com(H) practicing (filing return) income tax since 1 year. Last week he gave an advertisement in news paper of his service. He is not an advocate, just a B.Com.
Some official from tax department called him and told that a tax practioner can not give news paper advertisement and such an act is punishable.
Seniors please tell me if any such provision is there.

The person cannot be termed as a tax practioner either, inorder, to be an ITP he has to register with the I T Dept or he is no better than a quack. What were the contents of the advertisement which attracted the attention of the department, which has led to warning by the department.

I think to be registered as ITP one must practice tax at least for one year, then he can apply

Mr Vishal is right.

But so far as advertising is concerned, there is no prohibition in the Income-tax Act in this rgard for ITPs who are not advocate.
