16 September 2025 Time limit for filing a rectification application under Section 154 of the Income Tax Act. The application must be made within four years from the end of the financial year in which the order sought to be rectified was passed, not necessarily from the date of filing the original return.
The four-year period starts from the end of the financial year in which the order (such as an intimation, assessment, or other eligible order) was issued, not from when the original return was filed.
If a revised, appellate, or other subsequent order replaces the original, the four-year period is counted from the date of that specific order.
