NOTE A - ORGANIZATION

Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund III L.P. (the "Fund") was formed under the laws of the State of Delaware as of September 19, 1991 for the purpose of acquiring, holding, and disposing of limited partnership interests in operating partnerships which will acquire, develop, rehabilitate, operate and own newly constructed, existing or rehabilitated low-income apartment complexes ("Operating Partnerships"). Effective as of June 1, 2001 there was a restructuring, and as a result, the Fund's general partner was reorganized as follows. The general partner of the Fund continues to be Boston Capital Associates III L.P., a Delaware limited partnership. The general partner of the general partner of the Fund is now BCA Associates Limited Partnership, a Massachusetts limited partnership, whose sole general partner is C&M Management, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation whose limited partners are Herbert F. Collins and John P. Manning. Mr. Manning is the principal of Boston Capital Partners, Inc. The limited partner of the general partner is Capital Investment Holdings, a general partnership whose partners are various officers and employees of Boston Capital Partners, Inc. and its affiliates. The assignor limited partner is BCTC III Assignor Corp., a Delaware corporation which is wholly-owned by Herbert F. Collins and John P. Manning.

Pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, the Fund filed a Form S-11 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, effective January 24, 1992 which covered the offering (the "Public Offering") of the Fund's beneficial assignee certificates ("BACs") representing assignments of units of the beneficial interest of the limited partnership interest of the assignor limited partner. The Fund registered 20,000,000 BACs at $10 per BAC for sale to the public in one or more series. On September 4, 1993 the Fund filed an amendment to Form S-11 with the Securities and Exchange Commission which registered an additional 2,000,000 BACs at $10 per BAC for sale to the public in one or more series. The registration for the additional BACs became effective on October 6, 1993. Offers and sales of BACs in Series 15 through 19 of the Fund were completed and the last of the BACs in Series 15, 16, 17, 18 and 19 were issued by the Fund on September 26, 1992, December 28, 1992, September 17, 1993, September 22, 1993, and December 17, 1993, respectively. The Fund sold 3,870,500 of Series 15 BACs, for a total of $38,705,000; 5,429,402 of Series 16 BACs, for a total of $54,293,000; 5,000,000 of Series 17 BACs, for a total of $50,000,000; 3,616,200 of Series 18 BACs, for a total of $36,162,000; and 4,080,000 of Series 19 BACs, for a total of $40,800,000. As of September 30, 2019, 3,810,700 BACs in Series 15, 5,332,500 BACs in Series 16, 4,938,247 BACs in Series 17, 3,558,134 BACs in Series 18, and 4,056,000 BACs in Series 19, respectively, are outstanding.

The Fund has entered into several transactions with various affiliates of its general partner, including Boston Capital Holdings LP, Boston Capital Partners, Inc., and Boston Capital Asset Management Limited Partnership, as follows:

An annual fund management fee, based on .5 percent of the aggregate cost of all apartment complexes owned by the Operating Partnerships, has been accrued to Boston Capital Asset Management Limited Partnership. Since reporting fees collected by the series were added to reserves and not paid to Boston Capital Asset Management Limited Partnership, the amounts accrued are not net of reporting fees received.

NOTE D - INVESTMENTS IN OPERATING PARTNERSHIPS

At September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Fund had limited partnership interests in 20 and 35 Operating Partnerships, respectively, which own or are constructing apartment complexes. The breakdown of Operating Partnerships within the Fund at September 30, 2019 and 2018 is as follows:

Series 15	-	8
Series 16	8	12
Series 17	2	4
Series 18	10	10
Series 19	-	1
	20	35

Under the terms of the Fund's investment in each Operating Partnership, the Fund is required to make capital contributions to the Operating Partnerships. These contributions are payable in installments over several years upon each Operating Partnership achieving specified levels of construction and/or operations. The contributions payable at September 30, 2019 and 2018 are as follows:

	2019	2018
Series 15	$ -	$ -
Series 16	-	-
Series 17	-	7,893
Series 18	18,554	18,554
Series 19	-	-
	$ 18,554	$ 26,447

During the six months ended September 30, 2019 the Fund disposed of three Operating Partnerships. A summary of the dispositions by Series for September 30, 2019 is as follows:

NOTE D - INVESTMENTS IN OPERATING PARTNERSHIPS (continued)

During the six months ended September 30, 2018 the Fund disposed of four Operating Partnerships. A summary of the dispositions by Series for September 30, 2018 is as follows:

	Operating Partnership Interest Transferred	Sale of Underlying Operating Partnership	Fund Proceeds from Disposition		Gain on Disposition

Series 15	1	-	$	12,500	$	12,500

Series 19	2	-		13,000		13,000

Total	4	-	$	841,020	$	841,020

The gain described above is for financial statement purposes only. There are significant differences between the equity method of accounting and the tax reporting of income and losses from Operating Partnership investments. The largest difference is the ability, for tax purposes, to deduct losses in excess of the Fund's investment in the Operating Partnership. As a result, the amount of gain recognized for tax purposes may be significantly higher than the gain recorded in the condensed financial statements.

The Fund's fiscal year ends March 31st of each year, while all the Operating Partnerships' fiscal years are the calendar year. Pursuant to the provisions of each Operating Partnership Agreement, financial results for each of the Operating Partnerships are provided to the Fund within 45 days after the close of each Operating Partnerships quarterly period. Accordingly, the current financial results available for the Operating Partnerships are for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, the Fund adjusts
its investment cost for its share of each Operating Partnership's results of
operations and for any distributions received or accrued. However, the
Fund recognizes individual operating losses only to the extent of
capital contributions. Excess losses are suspended for use in future years to
offset excess income.

NOTE E - TAXABLE LOSS

The Fund's taxable loss is expected to differ from its loss for financial reporting purposes. This is primarily due to accounting differences in depreciation incurred by the Operating Partnerships and also differences between the equity method of accounting and the IRS accounting methods.

NOTE F - INCOME TAXES

The Fund has elected to be treated as a pass-through entity for income tax purposes and, as such, is not subject to income taxes. Rather, all items of taxable income, deductions and tax credits are passed through to and are reported by its owners on their respective income tax returns. The Fund's federal tax status as a pass-through entity is based on its legal status as a partnership. Accordingly, the Fund is not required to take any tax positions in order to qualify as a pass-through entity. The Fund is required to file and does file tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities. Accordingly, these financial statements do not reflect a provision for income taxes and the Fund has no other tax positions which must be considered for disclosure. Income tax returns filed by the Fund are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years. While no income tax returns are currently being examined by the Internal Revenue Service, tax years since 2015 remain open.

NOTE G - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to September 30, 2019, the Fund has entered into an agreement to transfer the interest in four operating limited partnerships. The estimated transfer price and other terms for the dispositions of the operating limited partnerships have been determined. The estimated proceeds to be received for the operating limited partnerships are $50,000. The estimated gain on the transfer of the operating limited partnerships are $40,000 and are expected to be recognized in the third quarter of fiscal year ending March 31, 2020.

NOTE H - Plan of Liquidation

On March 30, 2016, our General Partner recommended that the BAC holders approve a plan of liquidation and dissolution for the Partnership, or the "Plan." The Plan was approved by the BAC holders on June 1, 2016, and was adopted by the General Partner on June 1, 2016. Pursuant to the Plan, the General Partner would be able to, without further action by the BAC holders:

liquidate the assets and wind up the business of the Partnership;

make liquidating distributions in cancellation of the BACs, if any;

dissolve the Partnership after the sale of all of the Partnership's assets; and

take, or cause the Partnership to take, such other acts and deeds and shall do, or cause the Partnership to do, such other things, as are necessary or appropriate in connection with the dissolution, winding up and liquidation of the Partnership, the termination of the responsibilities and liabilities of the Partnership under applicable law, and the termination of the existence of the Partnership.

Since the approval of the Plan by the BAC holders, we have continued to seek to sell the assets of the Partnership and use the sale proceeds and/or other Partnership funds to pay all expenses in connection with such sales, pay or make provision for payment of all Partnership obligations and liabilities, including accrued fees, and unpaid loans to the General Partner, and distribute the remaining assets as set forth in the Partnership Agreement. We expect to complete the sale of the apartment complexes approximately three to five years after the BAC holders approval of the Plan, which was June 1, 2016. However, because of numerous uncertainties, the liquidation may take longer or shorter than expected, and the final liquidating distributions, if any, may occur months after all of the apartment complexes of any given Series have been sold. As liquidation is not imminent, the Partnership will continue to report as a going concern.

For additional information regarding the sale of Partnership assets, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 2. Management's Discussions and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements including our intentions, hopes, beliefs, expectations, strategies and predictions of our future activities, or other future events or conditions. These statements are "forward looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are intended to be covered by the safe harbors created by these acts. Investors are cautioned that all forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainty, including, for example, the factors identified in Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019. Although we believe that the assumptions underlying these forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements included in this Report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in these forward-looking statements, the inclusion of this information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that our objectives and plans will be achieved.

Liquidity

The Fund's primary source of funds was the proceeds of its Public Offering. Other sources of liquidity include (i) interest earned on capital contributions unpaid for the six months ended September 30, 2019 or on working capital reserves, (ii) cash distributions from operations of the Operating Partnerships in which the Fund has invested and (iii) proceeds received from the dispositions of the Operating Partnership that are returned to fund reserves. These sources of liquidity, along with the Fund's working capital reserve, are available to meet the obligations of the Partnership. The Fund does not anticipate significant cash distributions from operations of the Operating Partnerships.

The Fund is currently accruing the fund management fee. Fund management fees accrued during the quarter ended September 30, 2019 were $43,272 and total fund management fees accrued as of September 30, 2019 were $10,779,247. During the three months ended September 30, 2019, $78,844 of accrued fund management fees were paid. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, these liabilities will be deferred until the Fund receives proceeds from sales of the Operating Partnerships, which will be used to satisfy these liabilities. The Fund's working capital and sources of liquidity coupled with affiliated party liability accruals allow sufficient levels of liquidity to meet the third party obligations of the Fund. The Fund is currently unaware of any trends which would create insufficient liquidity to meet future third party obligations of the Fund.

Results of Operations

As of September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Fund held limited partnership interests in 20 and 35 Operating Partnerships, respectively. In each instance the apartment complex owned by the applicable Operating Partnership is eligible for the federal housing tax credit. Initial occupancy of a unit in each apartment complex which complied with the minimum set-aside test (i.e., initial occupancy by tenants with incomes equal to no more than a certain percentage of area median income) and the rent restriction test (i.e., gross rent charged tenants does not exceed 30% of the applicable income standards) is referred to as "Qualified Occupancy." Each of the Operating Partnerships and each of the respective apartment complexes are described more fully in the Prospectus or applicable report on Form 8-K. The general partner of the Fund believes that there is adequate casualty insurance on the properties.

The Fund incurs a fund management fee to Boston Capital Asset Management Limited Partnership (formerly Boston Capital Communications Limited Partnership), or BCAMLP, in an amount equal to .5 percent of the aggregate cost of the apartment complexes owned by the Operating Partnerships, less the amount of various asset management and reporting fees paid by the Operating Partnerships. The fund management fees incurred and the reporting fees paid by the Operating Partnerships for the three and six months ended September 30, 2019 are as follows:

	3 Months Gross Fund Management Fee	3 Months Reporting Fee	3 Months Fund Management Fee Net of Reporting Fee
Series 15	$ -	$ -	$ -
Series 16	18,480	2,957	15,523

	$ 86,544	$ 15,110	$ 71,434

The Fund's investment objectives do not include receipt of significant cash distributions from the Operating Partnerships in which it has invested or intends to invest. The Fund's investments in Operating Partnerships have been made principally with a view towards realization of federal housing tax credits for allocation to its partners and BAC holders.

Series 15

As of September 30, 2018, the average Qualified Occupancy for the series was 100%. The series did not have any properties as of September 30, 2019.

For the six month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, Series 15 reflects a net loss from Operating Partnerships of $- and $(70,473), respectively, which includes depreciation and amortization of $- and $122,439, respectively. This is an interim period estimate; it is not indicative of the final year end results.

In June 2018, the investment general partner transferred its interest in Beckwood Manor Eight Limited Partnership to an entity affiliated with the operating general partner for its assumption of the outstanding mortgage balance of approximately $1,096,290 and cash proceeds to the investment partnership of $16,000. Of the total proceeds received, $3,500 was paid to BCAMLP for expenses related to the transfer, which include third party legal costs. The remaining proceeds of approximately $12,500 were returned to cash reserves held by Series 15. The monies held in cash reserves will be utilized to pay current operating expenses, accrued but unpaid asset management fees, and accrued but unpaid expenses of the investment partnership. After all outstanding obligations of the investment partnership are satisfied, any remaining monies will be distributed based on the number of BACs held by each investor at the time of distribution. Annual losses generated by the Operating Partnership, which were applied against the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership in accordance with the equity method of accounting, had previously reduced the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership to zero. Accordingly, a gain on the transfer of the Operating Partnership, net of the overhead and expense reimbursement, has been recorded in the amount of $12,500 as of June 30, 2018.

In December 2018, the investment general partner transferred its interest in Livingston Plaza, Limited to an entity affiliated with the operating general partner for its assumption of the outstanding mortgage balance of approximately $571,663 and nominal cash proceeds to the investment partnership. There were no cash proceeds available to pay expenses related to the transfer and no proceeds were returned to cash reserves held by Series 15. Annual losses generated by the Operating Partnership, which were applied against the investment limited partnership's investment in the Operating Partnership in accordance with the equity method of accounting, had previously reduced the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership to zero. Accordingly, no gain or loss on the transfer of the Operating Partnership of the proceeds from the transfer has been recorded as of December 31, 2018.

In November 2018, the investment general partner transferred its interest in Arkansas City Properties Limited Partnership to an entity affiliated with the operating general partner for its assumption of the outstanding mortgage balance of approximately $702,880 and cash proceeds to the investment partnership of $24,000. Of the total proceeds received, $2,000 was paid to BCAMLP for expenses related to the transfer, which include third party legal costs. The remaining proceeds of approximately $22,000 were returned to cash reserves held by Series 15. The monies held in cash reserves will be utilized to pay current operating expenses, accrued but unpaid asset management fees, and accrued but unpaid expenses of the investment partnership. After all outstanding obligations of the investment partnership are satisfied, any remaining monies will be distributed based on the number of BACs held by each investor at the time of distribution. Annual losses generated by the Operating Partnership, which were applied against the investment limited partnership's investment in the Operating Partnership in accordance with the equity method of accounting, had previously reduced the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership to zero. Accordingly, a gain on the transfer of the Operating Partnership, net of the overhead and expense reimbursement, has been recorded in the amount of $22,000 as of December 31, 2018.

In November 2018, the investment general partner transferred its interest in Barton Village Limited Partnership to an entity affiliated with the operating general partner for its assumption of the outstanding mortgage balance of approximately $446,257 and cash proceeds to the investment partnership of $13,500. Of the total proceeds received, $2,000 was paid to BCAMLP for expenses related to the transfer, which include third party legal costs. The remaining proceeds of approximately $11,500 were returned to cash reserves held by Series 15.

Principal Accounting Policies and Estimates

The condensed financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require the Fund to make various estimates and assumptions. The following section is a summary of some aspects of those accounting policies that may require subjective or complex judgments and are most important to the portrayal of the Fund's financial condition and results of operations. The Fund believes that there is a low probability that the use of different estimates or assumptions in making these judgments would result in materially different amounts being reported in the financial statements.

The Fund is required to assess potential impairments to its long-lived assets, which are primarily investments in limited partnerships. The Fund accounts for its investment in limited partnerships in accordance with the equity method of accounting since the Fund does not control the operations of the Operating Partnerships. The purpose of an impairment analysis is to verify that the real estate investment balance reflected on the balance sheet does not exceed the value of the underlying investments.

If the book value of the Fund's investment in an Operating Partnership exceeds the estimated value derived by management, which generally consists of the remaining future Low-Income Housing Credits allocable to the Fund and the estimated residual value to the Fund, the Fund reduces its investment in the Operating Partnership.

In accordance with the accounting guidance for the consolidation of variable interest entities, the Fund determines when it should include the assets, liabilities, and activities of a variable interest entity (VIE) in its financial statements, and when it should disclose information about its relationship with a VIE. The analysis that must be performed to determine which entity should consolidate a VIE focuses on control and economic factors. A VIE is a legal structure used to conduct activities or hold assets, which must be consolidated by a company if it is the primary beneficiary because it has (1) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. If multiple unrelated parties share such power, as defined, no party will be required to consolidate the VIE. Further, the guidance requires continual reconsideration of the primary beneficiary of a VIE.

Based on this guidance, the Operating Partnerships in which the Fund invests meet the definition of a VIE because the owners of the equity at risk in these entities do not have the power to direct their operations. However, management does not consolidate the Fund's interests in these VIEs, as it is not considered to be the primary beneficiary since it does not have the power to direct the activities that are considered most significant to the economic performance of these entities. The Fund currently records the amount of its investment in these partnerships as an asset on its balance sheets, recognizes its share of partnership income or losses in the statements of operations, and discloses how it accounts for material types of these investments in its financial statements. The Fund's balance in investment in Operating Partnerships plus advances made to Operating Partnerships represents its maximum exposure to loss. The Fund's exposure to loss on these partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying Housing Complexes as well as the strength of the general partners and their guarantee against credit recapture to the investors of the Fund.

	(a)	Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
