what is assessment year and previous year ?

Answer Posted / siddhant

Assessment Year
Income-tax is an annual tax imposed separately for each assessment year (also called the tax year).
This commences from 1st April and ends on the next 31st March.
Previous Year
This is generally for a period of 12 months ending on 31st March just prior to the commencement of the assessment year.
In the case of a source of income coming into existence in the middle of the year,
“This may not run for a full period of 12 months from 1st April to the following 318t March.”
In General, the “previous year” is also referred to as the “Accounting Year” or the “Income Year”.
