How To Complete Tax Related Issues Before March 31, 2017

With hardly a fortnight left for the end of the financial year 2016-17, the March 31 deadline remains sacrosanct for several tax-related matters. Leaving things to the last minute has its own share of risks. So, keep a 2-4 days buffer to finish all tax-related tasks.

Something may go wrong when it comes to online payments too if things are left to the last minute. 

Here are few tax-related matters to attend to now so that they can be wrapped up by March 31.
