Provided that, on an application made in this behalf, the Income- tax Officer may, in his discretion, extend the date for furnishing the return.
(2) In the case of any person who, in the Income-tax Officer's opinion is assessable under this Act, whether in respect of his own chargeable receipts or in respect of the chargeable receipts of any other person, the Income-tax Officer may, before the end of the relevant assessment year, issue a notice to him and serve the same upon him, requiring him to furnish within thirty days from the date of service of the notice a return of his chargeable receipts or the chargeable receipts of such other person of the previous year in the prescribed form and verified in the prescribed manner and setting forth such other particulars as may be prescribed:
Provided that on an application made in this behalf, the Income-tax Officer may, in his discretion, extend the date for furnishing the return.
