In a significant move bringing relief to millions of taxpayers, the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) has extended the due date for filing Income Tax Returns (ITRs) for Financial Year 2024-25 (Assessment Year 2025-26). The original deadline of July 31, 2025, has now been pushed to September 15, 2025. This “ITR extension 2025” provides an additional 45 days for individuals and Hindu Undivided Families (HUFs) whose accounts are not subject to audit.
