📢 Important Update: New ITR Filing Due Date Announced – 15th September 2025

Taxpayers and professionals, take note! The Income Tax Department has officially extended the Income Tax Return (ITR) filing due date for the Assessment Year 2025–26. Originally set for 31st July 2025, the new due date is now 15th September 2025.

This extension brings much-needed clarity and relief, especially for individuals and businesses waiting for the release of relevant ITR forms.

🧾 What Has Changed?

🔴 Old Due Date: 31st July 2025
✅ New Due Date: 15th September 2025

This change applies primarily to non-audit taxpayers, including:

  • Individuals

  • Hindu Undivided Families (HUFs)

  • Small businesses and professionals not subject to tax audit

⚠️ Why the Extension?

The primary reason behind this extension is the delayed release of some ITR forms. As of now:

  • ✅ ITR-1 (Sahaj) and ITR-4 (Sugam) are already notified and available.

  • ❌ ITR-2 and ITR-3 are not yet released.

If you're unsure about which ITR form you need to file, rushing the process could lead to mistakes, rejection of the return, or even penalties.

📌 Important Filing Reminders

Before you proceed with your return filing, here are some key reminders:

✔️ File only using the applicable ITR form – using the wrong one could result in invalid returns.

🛑 Avoid filing in haste – particularly if you fall under ITR-2 or ITR-3 categories (e.g., salaried individuals with capital gains, business income, or multiple house properties).

⏳ Wait for the correct form release – and keep your documents ready in the meantime.

💡 Consult a professional if you're unsure about your eligibility, form type, or deductions.
