President Communication

Dear Professional Colleagues and Readers

As we all know, the virus has trapped our entire country in its cage whose keys are nowhere to be found but let’s hope the doors of the cage open soon and let us birds fly towards freedom and excellence and hence resume our lives to accomplish our missions and goals. Amid battling Covid-19 second wave, a rare ‘black fungus’ that invades the brain is being increasingly reported in patients across India. The epidemic of Mucor mycosis is yet another of the unpleasant surprises produced by the COVID pandemic. Even antifungal drugs are in short supply in India and they may be unaffordable for most. There are relatively few categories of antifungals, and while some of them have been available for decades, newer versions that are less toxic to patients are expensive and scarce.

Since past few days there has been decline in daily new Covid-19 cases. Daily positivity rate too has dipped, but the death rate from the Covid pandemic has risen sharply across the country in May, with Delhi registering the highest case fatality rate among bigger states during the first three weeks of this month. The cumulative number of COVID- 19 vaccine doses administered in the country has crossed 21 crores.

Amid, the severe Covid-19 pandemic, the income tax (I-T) department has extended the I-T return filing deadline for 2020-21. The extension in timelines will help ease the pressure in the minds of taxpayers.
