If a taxpayer is subject to the tax surcharge imposed under section one hundred eighty-four-a or one hundred eighty-six-c of this article and such taxpayer's estimated tax under section one hundred eighty-four or one hundred eighty-six-a of this article, respectively, can reasonably be expected to exceed one thousand dollars, such taxpayer shall also make a declaration of its estimated tax surcharge for the current taxable year. 2.

If the taxable period for which a tax or tax surcharge is imposed under any of the sections enumerated in subdivision one hereof is other than twelve months, every taxpayer required to make a declaration of estimated tax or a declaration of estimated tax surcharge for such taxable period shall make such declaration in accordance with rules of the commissioner. 7. This section shall apply to taxable periods of twelve months other than a calendar year by the substitution of the months of such fiscal year for the corresponding months specified in this section.8. The tax commission may grant a reasonable extension of time, not to exceed three months, for the filing of any declaration required pursuant to this section, on such terms and conditions as it may require.
