AU desk · Company Tax
Company tax is an ATO file, not an ASIC file. PAYG instalments can fall due during the year on the BAS. STP is a separate payday track if you have Australian employees.
ATO tracks we keep on one calendar
Company tax return
Lodge after year-end. Agent-linked files often have different due dates from self-lodgers. Computations should match the accounts.
PAYG instalments
Income-tax instalments in year, often on the BAS. Missing them costs general-interest charge even if the return is still open.
STP and PAYG withholding
Australian employees need Single Touch Payroll reporting on or before payday, plus withholding on the BAS.
Individuals with Australian income
India-resident owners with Australian salary, dividends, or rent may still have a personal ATO filing. We coordinate that with the India ITR.
What we typically deliver
- Company-tax diary from the financial year-end
- PAYG-instalment tracker on the BAS calendar
- Computations aligned to the accounts
- STP support where there is Australian payroll
- India ITR and treaty-credit notes for the same year
ATO lodgements that must be signed locally are executed with Australian tax partners. PJRJ prepares the numbers and keeps India reporting aligned.
Australia Company Tax & PAYG FAQs
They are income-tax instalments during the year, often reported on the BAS. They are not the same as the year-end company tax return. Missing an instalment can cost interest even if the return is still open.
We coordinate STP reporting, journals, and the payday calendar with an Australian payroll or accounting partner. STP still has to reach the ATO on or before payday.
