Income Tax Return: Have you filed income tax return? Or are you also waiting for the deadline for return filing to go ahead? A few hours from now, it will be known whether the last date for filing returns is carried forward. If it does not increase, you will have to file the return by 12 December till 31 December 2020. Penalty will have to be paid as soon as 1 January 2020. According to experts, the government can give more extensions now. Because, many institutions have demanded the government to increase the return deadline by 31 March 2021. However, nothing has been clear about it from the Finance Ministry.

If sources are to be believed, after 31 December, the last date of return filing can be increased to 31 January 2021. The government can give one month more time to file the returns for the financial year 2019-20. Sources also say that the government can move forward the deadline to meet the previous target. Actually, a total of 5.65 crore returns were filed till 31 August 2019 in the last financial year, till December 24 this year only 3.97 crore returns have been received. Given this figure, the deadline can be increased.
