07 November 2016 As CBDT issued a circular on 9th June prescribed to allow income tax assesses to file their tax returns for six years, provided they follow prescribed procedure. A tax payer can make a request to condone the delay in filing of return within six years from the end of the assessment year in respect of which the return is to be filed. So effectively in case of claim for income tax refund, you get an extension of five years only as presently also you can file your income tax return for refund one year after end of the assessment year.
