The finance ministry has extended the deadline after there were reports in social media that the taxpayers were facing difficulties in filing return of income in ITR-2 & ITR-3 due to large scale changes in the ITR form on 11th July, 2019.
Many chartered accountant and tax practioner societies had also appealed to the government to extend the ITR filing deadline.
Even if you miss the last date you can file your I-T return till March 31, 2020 with fine.
