You can file your income-tax return till September 7. The Finance Ministry has extended the last date for filing the return for a week from August 31.
“The Government has received various representations that tax payers have faced difficulties in e-filing of returns across the country due to slowing down of certain e-services on August 31. Considering these representations, the Central Board Direct Taxes (CBDT) has extended the due-date for e-filing returns of income from August 31 to September 7 in respect of all taxpayers who were required to e-file their returns of income by August 31, 2015,” a Finance Ministry statement said.
