Twitter Trends on ITR Filing Due Dates

The assessee has complained about the technical issues with the Income-tax return portal, with the approaching last date to furnish the ITR for the FY 2020-21 (AY21-22) 

31st Dec is the last date to file ITR for AY21-22. The Union government has postponed the due date for filing of an income tax return to 31st Dec from 31st July formerly in the year. 

But the assessee has asked for the extension of the last date as they complained that the tax filing portal was not running correctly and the same is happening again and again. 

On Twitter India #Extend_Due_Date_ has begun trending as various users asked the government to prolonge the last date by a few days. 

"Is 31st December an extended due date for Software Developer or Taxpayer as Taxpayer has got much lesser time than the one prescribed? Therefore the message should be '31st December is the extended due date for Developer but not Taxpayer'," said a user of Twitter.


"Thank you @Infosys and @IncomeTaxIndia for such a wonderful portal, new errors and new glitches every day," he added. 

In the meantime, the income tax dept mentioned with the total of 4,67,45,249 ITRs were furnished up to December 27.

"Sharing the statistics of Income Tax Returns filed till 27.12.2021. A total of 4,67,45,249 #ITRs have been filed up to 27.12.2021 including 15,49,831 #ITRs filed on the day itself. For any assistance, pl connect on orm@cpc.incometax.gov.in We will be glad to assist," mentioned by him on Twitter.

What Would Happen When One Loses The Last Date?

The assessee would furnish their ITR by the last date or on the final date despite they miss the last date. While 31st Dec 2021 is the last date to furnish ITR for FY 2020-21 the due date for filing is 31st March 2022.

But they do not enable to carry forward the losses towards the present year and would not be set off with respect to the income of the existing year.
