Clarification on Due Date for Filing Audit Report & ITR for Section 8 Company

This query is : Resolved 

29 September 2025 Dear anyone......

This is regarding the filing of the Audit Report and Income Tax Return (ITR) for our Section 8 Company for the financial year 2024-25.

As per advice of our C.A firm, under the Companies Act, the last date for filing the Audit Report and ITR is 30th September 2025, and it is mandatory to file within this date.

However, as per the recent notification of the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT), the due date for filing ITR in case of companies requiring audit has been extended to 31st October 2025.

We request your guidance on what should be considered the actual last date for filing in our case, so that we can proceed accordingly in compliance with both Company Law and Income Tax requirements.


29 September 2025 Under the Companies Act, the Audit Report needs to be filed with the Registrar of Companies (ROC) within 30 days of the annual general meeting (AGM), and typically, the AGM and related filings for audited financials are due by 30th September each year.

There is currently no recent notification extending the deadline for AGM or financial statement filings with ROC for FY 2024-25.

29 September 2025 The CBDT has specifically extended the due date for ITR filing for companies requiring audit to 31st October 2025 for FY 2024-25.

This extension applies only to the Income Tax Return; it does not extend the Companies Act requirements for audit report filings with the ROC.

29 September 2025 Good luck..
