Income Tax Filing deadline to 2025 September 15 from July 31..!
The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) has
extended the deadline for filing Income Tax Returns (ITRs) for the assessment
year 2025–26 (Financial year 2024-25).
Income Taxpayers who were earlier required to
file their returns by 2025 July 31, 2025, will now have time until September
15, 2025, to complete the process.
The decision comes in light of substantial updates made to ITR
forms this year, along with necessary adjustments to the filing system and
delays in TDS credit reflections.
According to officials, the extension is aimed
at ensuring a smoother and more accurate tax filing experience for all
categories of taxpayers.
The extension provides much-needed relief to
salaried individuals, professionals, and other non-audit taxpayers who
typically face last-minute challenges during the filing season.
Taxpayers are advised to utilise the extra time to verify Form
26AS, reconcile TDS credits, and file accurate returns.
