ITR Filing Deadline Extension Sought Amidst Software Delays
The deadline to file your taxes is coming up soon.
Some groups are asking for more time because the software needed to file taxes was late.
The government has already given some people extra time, but now others want an extension.
Those who don't need audits have until September.
If you need an audit, you have until October.
If you're dealing with international matters, you have until November.
GCCI requested an extension of the ITR filing deadline for AY 2025-26.
The request cites delays in the release of tax utilities and software updates.
The filing deadline for individuals without a tax audit was extended to September 15, 2025.
Taxpayers requiring audits have until October 31, 2025, to file, with audit reports due September 30.
Deadlines for international transactions are set for November 30, 2025, with audit reports due October 31.
