Income Tax Calculation Statement for the Financial Year 2025-2026
The Member-Secretary of the Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority, through the Administration Bills (Main) Division, issued Letter No. AB2/128/2026 dated 8 January 2026, asking pensioners and family pensioners to submit their income tax statement for 2025-2026 to claim pension or family pension for February 2026. The letter gives 10 February 2026 as the submission deadline, while an important note in the attached form asks for submission to the Administrative Officer by 6 February 2026.
What the document does
The Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority income tax statement collects income, deduction, investment and tax details for the financial year 2025-2026. Pensioners and family pensioners are asked to submit it to the Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority office so that they can claim pension or family pension for February 2026.
The letter gives 10 February 2026 as the deadline. However, the important note in the attached form says that the statement should reach the Administrative Officer on or before 6 February 2026. A person filing the form should therefore note both dates.
Who is affected
The Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority letter directly affects its pensioners and family pensioners claiming payment for February 2026. The attached calculation form also uses employee details, including employee code, name, designation, division and mandatory Permanent Account Number.
The document does not change land use, planning permission, property ownership or development controls. A property buyer or owner is affected only if they are also required to file this statement with the Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority.
