On May 27, IND Tax extended the due date for filing tax returns.
IND Tax said Central Board of Direct Taxes has extended deadline for filing income tax returns (ITRs) for assessment year 2025-26 from Jul. 31, 2025 to Sep. 15, 2025.
Document dated May 27, 2025, received from IND Tax Jul. 8, summarized on Jul. 10.
Background
Notified ITR forms for assessment year 2025-26 are structurally, substantively revised to simplify compliance, enhance transparency, and enable more accurate reporting.
Revisions, delayed reflection of TDS credits until early Jun. have limited original filing window, requiring more time for system development and accurate return submission.
The extended deadline is designed to alleviate stakeholder concerns, provide adequate time for compliance, and uphold the integrity and accuracy of the filing process.
