ITR Due Date AY 2025-26
The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) has announced a significant extension for filing Income Tax Returns (ITRs) for Assessment Year (AY) 2025-26. This is crucial information for every taxpayer and business in India!
The New Deadline You Need to Know
Originally, the due date for filing ITRs for AY 2025-26 was 31st July 2025. However, in a recent press release, the CBDT has officially extended this date to 15th September 2025 (For Official Press Release, Click Here). This provides taxpayers with an additional month and a half to ensure their compliance.
Why the Extension?
This extension comes in response to several key developments:
- Revised ITR Forms: The notified ITRs for AY 2025-26 have undergone significant structural and content revisions. These changes aim to simplify compliance, enhance transparency, and enable accurate reporting.
- System Readiness: Implementing these revised forms requires additional time for system development, integration, and comprehensive testing of the corresponding ITR utilities.
- TDS Statement Credits: Furthermore, credits arising from TDS statements, due for filing by 31st May 2025, are expected to begin reflecting in early June. This would have limited the effective window for return filing had the extension not been granted.
The CBDT’s decision aims to mitigate concerns raised by stakeholders and provide adequate time for compliance, thereby ensuring the integrity and accuracy of the return filing process.
What This Means for You
While the extension provides much-needed breathing room, it’s essential not to delay your tax preparations. This extra time should be utilized for:
- Gathering Documents: Collect all necessary income proofs, investment details, and other relevant documents.
- Understanding New Forms: Familiarize yourself with any changes in the ITR forms relevant to your income sources.
- Accurate Reporting: Ensure every detail is correctly reported to avoid future discrepancies.
