New Delhi: The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) has extended the deadline for filing income tax returns from July 31 to September 15, 2025. This relief is only for those taxpayers whose accounts are not audited, such as the salaried class, pensioners, and small traders. Other taxpayers will have to file returns under the old deadline prescribed, reports Dynamite News correspondent.
This new deadline has given taxpayers more time to organize their documents. Some important documents will be required to file returns correctly and on time.
The most important document for salaried people
Form 16 is a certificate given by your employer that contains complete details of your total salary, TDS deducted, and tax. This makes it easy to match whether the data filled on the income tax portal is correct or not.
For income from different sources
Form 16A: Gives information about TDS based on income, like fixed deposits and insurance commissions.
Form 16B: Issued after deducting TDS of the seller on purchase of property above 50 lakhs.
Form 16C: If you pay rent of more than Rs 50,000, then the tenant has to give this form to the landlord.
Form 16D: Related to TDS on payment to professionals and contractors.
All these forms provide correct information about different sources of income, which is necessary while filing ITR.
Digital record
Form 26AS: There is a complete record of your tax deduction (TDS / TCS).
AIS (Annual Information Statement): Detailed information of income like bank, shares, mutual funds, and FD.
TIS (Taxpayer Information Summary): Brief information of AIS, so that taxpayers can understand quickly.
All these documents can be downloaded by logging on to the income tax portal. Don't forget the income from investments. If you have invested in stocks, mutual funds, or property and sold it, then it is important to disclose the profit (capital gain). For this, get a capital gain statement from your broker or mutual fund house.
