About ATL:
A person’s name will be part of the current ATL, if the Tax Return filed pertains to the Tax year of the
relevant ATL. For example, to be part of the ATL published on 1st March 2021, a person must have filed
a Tax return for the Tax year 2020. Similarly, to be a part of the ATL published on 1st March 2022, a
person must have filed a Tax Return for the Tax year 2021.
Restriction on including a person’s name on ATL, if the person has not filed Tax Return by the due date
specified by Income Tax authorities was introduced through Finance Act, 2018. For example, to be part
of the ATL published on 1st March 2022, a person must file a Tax Return by the specified due date for
the Tax year 2021.
However, through Finance Act, 2019 a person’s name can be part of ATL, even if the person has filed Tax
Return after the due date specified by Income Tax authorities.
