\nAccording to the Income Tax Department, the revised ITR forms<\/b> for AY 2025-26<\/b> have
\nundergone major structural and content changes<\/b> to simplify the compliance process and
\nimprove the accuracy of tax reporting. These updates have made it necessary to develop,
\nintegrate, and thoroughly test the new ITR utilities<\/b> before they are rolled out for public use.<\/p>\n
\nAnother reason behind the extension is the delay in Tax Deducted at Source (TDS)<\/b> credit
\navailability. Although TDS statements are required to be filed by May 31, 2025,<\/b> they are
\nexpected to start reflecting in the income tax system only by early June 2025.<\/b> Without an
\nextended deadline, the effective filing window for taxpayers would have been too narrow,
\nincreasing the risk of errors and mismatches.<\/p>\n
\naccountants, and industry professionals<\/b>, who feared last-minute technical issues and
\ncompliance hurdles due to the compressed timeline. By granting this extension, the department
\naims to provide a more convenient, error-free, and digitally efficient income tax filing
\nexperience.<\/b><\/p>\n
\n(formerly Twitter)<\/b> handle, a formal notification confirming the new ITR due date<\/b> is
