📢 Income Tax Return (ITR) Due Date Extended from 31st July to 15th September: Key Highlights and What You Should Know

By Global Taxman India Ltd

The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) has officially extended the due date for filing Income Tax Returns (ITR) for the financial year 2024-25 (Assessment Year 2025-26) from 31st July 2025 to 15th September 2025. This extension comes as a relief to millions of taxpayers across India, offering additional time to comply with tax filing requirements without facing penalties.

🔍 Why Has the Due Date Been Extended?

The government has cited multiple reasons for the extension, including:

• Technical difficulties on the Income Tax e-filing portal.
• Natural calamities and disruptions in certain states.
• Requests from various stakeholders including tax professionals, industry associations, and individual taxpayers.

This move is aimed at ensuring a smoother and more efficient filing process, allowing taxpayers more time to gather documents, reconcile data, and avoid late fees.

📅 Revised Important Deadlines

Note: The deadline extension applies primarily to individuals and Hindu Undivided Families (HUFs) whose accounts do not require auditing.

🧾 Who Benefits From This Extension?

• Salaried employees
• Freelancers and gig workers
• Small business owners and professionals not liable for audit
• Retirees and pensioners

⚠️ Why You Should Still File Early

While the extension provides additional time, early filing is still recommended for several reasons:

• Faster processing of refunds
• Avoiding last-minute technical glitches
• Peace of mind
• Easier access to financial services (many banks and institutions require ITRs for loans and visa processing)
