After the conclusion of each financial year, certain specified people are required to file Income Tax Returns with the Income Tax Department. To ensure that returns are filed on time, the tax department has established a deadline by which a person can file a return without paying late fees. This last date is the “Income Tax Return Due Date”.The deadline for filing an Income Tax Return varies based on the type of taxpayer; for example – Individual, HUF, firm, LLP, company, trust, and AOP/BOI; and whether or not an audit is required.
Taxpayers who file their return beyond the due date will be subject to interest under Section 234A and a penalty under Section 234F.
After the amendments, if the taxpayer needs to change the original return, they can use a revised return under Section 139(5), and that is to be filed on or before 31st December of the Assessment Year.
Once the deadline has passed, the taxpayers cannot file any returns. If the return was missed due to unforeseen circumstances, after obtaining permission from A.O. can file past returns under Section 119.
The government has also introduced the ITR- U form for updating income tax returns in the Union Budget 2022. The ITR-U form is for people who either failed to file their ITRs or filled them out incorrectly and with false information. Using the ITR-U form, taxpayers have two years from the conclusion of the applicable assessment year to update their returns and correct any errors or omissions on their ITRs. For instance, if the taxpayers still need to report some income, an updated return may be filed by 31st March 2024.
An updated return can be filed if:
The time limit for filing an updated ITR is 24 months from the end of the assessment year. For example, in the current financial year 2023-24, updated returns for AY 2021-22 and AY 2020-21 can be furnished.
The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT), in the exercise of its powers under section 119 of the Income Tax Act,1961[1], extends the time limit of furnishing return of income under sub-section (1) of section 139 of Act of the Assessment year 2023-24, which is the 31st July 2024.
