Things to be Done
1.Service Tax Due dates:
Due date to deposit Service Tax on services provided/deemed to provided in month/quarter is 5th of succeeding Month, but due date to deposit tax for  month/quarter ending on  31st March ,is 31st March itself. So make sure that you pay your service tax due for the month of March /quarter Jan-March,13 as the case may be by 31st March ,2013.
2.  Excise Duty Due Date :  
Same rule of Service Tax is applicable on Excise Duty also, So excise duty due for month/quarter ended 31st March is to be deposited by 31st March,2013 itself.
3. Due Date for Advance Tax : 
Generally tax payers thinks that advance tax due dates are 15 June, 15 Sep, 15 Dec  and 15 march ,but forget about 31st March. 31st March is last day for depositing your advance tax under Income tax .If you have balance advance tax then pay it by 31st March , otherwise you have to bear another 1 % interest u/s 234B at least for one month.So even if you pay balance tax on First April,2013 ,you have to pay interest on balance advance tax u/s 234B for one month.
4. Advance tax for capital Gain : 
Importance of 31st March in Indian Taxes Second point under advance tax is, if you have Income from Capital Gain then Income tax rules/act provide you exemption from depositing installment of advance due on capital gain amount before the accrual of such capital gain Income. but this is subject to condition that you pay balance tax with in Financial year.If you are unable to deposit the advance tax due on capital gain with in financial year then above exemption will not be available to you.
Example: Suppose a person earned income from capital gain Rs 12,00,000/- on March,16 and advance tax due is Rs 1,33,900/- .In this case, if person pay his advance tax by 31st March then no interest is to be charged u/s 234C but if he do not  pay advance tax by 31 March , then interest u/s 234C will be payable by him amounting to Rs 4951/- from the first installment due date ?.
5 .Return for assessment year 2011-12
If you have not filed your Income Tax return for the assessment year 2011-12 ,then go far it before 31st March 2013 ,you still have a chance ,as belated return can be filed with in one year from the end of assessment year.
6. File Return for assessment year 2012-13 without penalty 
If you have not filed your Income Tax return for the assessment year 2012-13 ,then go far it before 31st March 2013 ,you still have a chance to file your return without paying any penalty as the assessment year closes on 31st March.

If are planning to save tax u/s 80C or 80D(Medical /health insurance ) or other section then purchase Tax saving instruments like,NSC,PPF ,Lic receipt before 31st March so that you can take maximum benefit provided under these heads.
Further make sure that you cheque also got cleared before 31st March , as in few investment schemes cheque clearing date may be treated as your investment date .So its better to deposit in cash except section 80D (medical insurance/health insurance).
