ITR Filing 2025 Deadline: Final Due Date of Filing Income Tax Return- This is the last day to submit your income tax return (ITR) for this financial year. The portal data of the Income Tax Department as of September 14 shows that over 6.69 crore returns were filed this year. Of these, approximately 6.03 crore returns have been taxpayer-verified, and slightly more than 4 crore verified returns have already been processed by the department.
The Income Tax Department has also issued a statement that the filing deadline will not be extended this year. Taxpayers need to file their ITR before the end of the day to avoid penalties. In case they fail to file the return within the deadline, a filing fee may be levied as per Section 234F of the Income Tax Act.
This is a critical deadline since failure to meet it might attract penalties and fines. Therefore, if you have not submitted your ITR, today is the last day when you can do so without any financial consequences.
There is nothing to worry about in the event of a delay in your income tax refund. The Income Tax Department pays interest on the pending refund at 6 percent per year, starting from April 1. This helps compensate taxpayers for any delay beyond the normal processing time.
Despite complaints about the slow e-filing portal, the Income Tax Department has confirmed there will be no extension for this year’s filing deadline. Rumors of an extension circulating on Sunday were false, and taxpayers must file their returns by the final deadline to avoid penalties.
