The last date for filing a tax return (ITR) was supposed to end on Monday before the Central Council of Direct Taxes (CBDT) decided to push through by one day by 16 September. Over the past few days, several tax ensembles, including tax experts, have grown about their unfavorableness to file a return because on the slow website.
Experts have expressed their anxiety on social media by not downloading AIS or thous, which prevents them from submitting tax returns for installation.
The result is several applications for extending the deadline.
Preeti Sharma, Partner, Global Employers’ Services, Tax and Regulatory Services, BDO India, says: “Sunday Sunday has filed approximately 6.69 returns compared to 7.28 core last year last year, leaving considerable gap.
Expressing similar feelings, DIPEH JAIN, Partner, Tax Practice, Practice of Economic Laws (ELP), says: “During 2024, more than 7.25 crore was filed by July 31 2024.
“On September 14, IT portal did not work, so if people could not file their yields of technical defects, then it should be done for several days. Also, people should serve earlier and not wait for the last date to return specifically when the government,” says Sauma Aggarwal.
On the social media, some cases have occurred to the extent that there is no deadline for “failure of democratic principles”.

A slow web during the day
Even those who managed to file a tax return did so out of the top hours.
“Over the last four days, we have given zero yields between 10 and 8. We managed to do so only 11 at night and before 9 am. During the day it took us to serve only one,” says Chirag Chauhan, Chartered in Mumbai.
Ca Pratibha Goyal, PD Gupta & Company’s partner, said that the date (September 15) should be spent because the electronic submission portal has not worked smoothly in the last few days. There are many problems with a view of tax payment, submitting and downloading AIS, thous, 26AS and ITR Forms.
She also says that although she has been around 40 ITR in the last three days, several revenues of her customers are still waiting for a slow website. “There were several cases where the money was deducted from the bank, but did not introduce themselves to the tax portal,” he says.
On Sunday, false news spread on social media and claimed that the last date was extended, but this department is claimed. Around midnight, however, CBDT decided to extend the deadline by one day until September 16. This was the second extension, which was provided for the ITTR for AY 2026. Originally the last date of 31 July, which was extended until 15 September.
