Over Two Crore Income Tax Returns Filed Ahead of July 31 Deadline
Over two crore income tax returns have been filed for Assessment Year 2026-27, with the government and tax experts advising taxpayers to submit their returns before the July 31 deadline. Unlike last year, when the deadline was extended due to delayed form notifications, this year’s forms and filing utilities are available on time, making an extension unlikely. Early filing is recommended to avoid late fees, interest, and last-minute errors, ensuring smoother compliance and faster refund processing.
