In a letter to the CBDT as per <em>ET Wealth report<\/em>, the chamber said the ITR filing process for AY 2025\u201326 has been hit by delays in the release of utilities, arriving nearly three months later than usual. Many forms were still unavailable in early August, leaving little time for preparation. Frequent changes to utilities and slow software updates add to the strain, especially in areas with patchy internet.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">GCCI has also pushed for a new deadline for tax audits, currently set at September 30.<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">It\u2019s important to note that although the central government extended the ITR filing deadline for individuals not subject to a tax audit from July 31, 2025, to September 15, 2025, the move offered limited relief. The ITR forms were released much later than usual, leaving taxpayers with little extra time to prepare and file. This is the key reason why the GCCI has submitted its representation seeking a further extension.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">The chamber added that frequent changes to the utilities, coupled with poor internet access in several regions, have left taxpayers and professionals with limited time to ensure accurate filings, as per <em>ET Wealth report<\/em>. It has also requested an extension of the September 30 deadline for tax audit reports.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p data-start=\"42\" data-end=\"168\">For Assessment Year 2025\u201326, the dates of release for the latest Income Tax Return (ITR) utilities and forms are as follows:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"listOncontentArticleUL\" data-start=\"170\" data-end=\"496\">\n<li data-start=\"170\" data-end=\"247\">\n<p data-start=\"172\" data-end=\"247\">ITR-1, ITR-2, ITR-3, and ITR-4 were all released on between May, June and July.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"248\" data-end=\"296\">\n<p data-start=\"250\" data-end=\"296\">ITR-5 was released on 8 August 2025.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"297\" data-end=\"341\">\n<p data-start=\"299\" data-end=\"341\">ITR-6 Excel Utility was released on 15 August 2025.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"342\" data-end=\"386\">\n<p data-start=\"344\" data-end=\"386\">ITR-7 has not yet been released.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"387\" data-end=\"441\">\n<p data-start=\"389\" data-end=\"441\">Form 3CA-3CD was released on 29 July 2025.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"442\" data-end=\"496\">\n<p data-start=\"444\" data-end=\"496\">Form 3CB-3CD was released on 29 July 2025.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Different Deadlines For Taxpayers:<\/h3>\n<p id=\"10\" class=\"story_para_10\"><strong>September 15 Deadline For Those Who Don\u2019t Require Audit<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"11\" class=\"story_para_11\">The tax department has extended the deadline for those taxpayers who don\u2019t require audit to file the taxes. The changes in income tax forms, new slabs under new income tax and capital gain taxes have prompted the department to extend the dates.<\/p>\n<p id=\"12\" class=\"story_para_12\"><strong>Who Can File ITR By October 31, 2025?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"13\" class=\"story_para_13\">Taxpayers whose accounts need to be audited\u2014such as companies, proprietorships, and working partners in firms\u2014have until October 31, 2025, to file their income tax returns (ITR) for the financial year 2024-25 (assessment year 2025-26).<\/p>\n<p id=\"14\" class=\"story_para_14\">Before they can do that, they must ensure their audit report is submitted by September 30, 2025. As of now, the Income Tax Department has not announced any extension to this deadline.<\/p>\n<p id=\"15\" class=\"story_para_15\"><strong>Deadline for Those with International Dealings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"16\" class=\"story_para_16\">If a taxpayer is involved in international transactions or certain specified domestic transactions, they are required to submit a report under Section 92E.
