Content and scope of the Taxsutra Library
The Taxsutra Library contains 240+ statutes and their delegated legislations
Acts like Income-tax, Companies Act, and GST which have amendments made to them almost on a daily basis, we collate all the amendments and update the Statute on a weekly basis, unless otherwise required.
A. In every book we have a box in the right hand panel titled “Updated Up To”. This will give you all the information about the amendments and updates incorporated in the current Book.
A “Book” is a collection of topics which covers the content of an Act and it’s delegated legislation, whereas a “Category” is a collection of Books on a particular subject.
One can use the breadcrumbs for easier navigation or simply use the Book Search facility given in the left hand column. Click on the information button to enable yourself to search more effectively.
A. You cannot directly copy the content of any topic from the Library. The selection has been disabled for security reasons. You can download the PDF of a particular topic by clicking on the “Generate PDF” button given as a User Feature.
You can always leave feedback using the “Feedback” button. It contains a dialogue box where you can type your message and the URL of the topic you’re currently viewing.
Search FAQs
You can do it in just two steps, in two ways
Method 1
Step 1: Select the Act (say, Income Tax Act) by clicking on the Statutes Menu and scrolling down this alphabetical list of Book. You will reach the first page of the Book you select (in this case, the Preamble to the Income Tax Act, 1961).
Step 2: Type in S.115JAA in the Book Search box in the Left-hand Panel. Bingo! Before you can say Raju is my uncle, you’ve reached the section!
If you are already on some topic in the Income-Tax Act, 1961, Step 1 is unnecessary. Step 1 is necessary only if you want to search for a topic in a book other than the one you are currently viewing.
If you are searching for, say, Rule 3 of the Income Tax Act, you can type in R.3 in the Book Search box, from any topic in the Income-tax Act and click on the appropriate link below the Search Box.
Please Note: The Book Search facility searches the Topic Titles only, and not the full text of the Book.
Method 2:
Step 1: Click on the Magnifying Glass icon in the Top Frame. This takes you to the Library-wide full text search – and you can decide within which Book or Books you want to search for a particular section.
Step 2: Type in the name of the topic you want to reach (in this case, 115JAA). In the Search Book Dropdown box, select the Book or Books within which you want the search to be restricted. Let us say, you want to search within the Income-tax Act, 1961. Typing the first few characters of the Book you want to search in suffice to reach what you want. Select the Book name(s), and then click on the Library Search button. This is a powerful search feature. By default, it searches the entire Library.
