Any extension for Self Assessment tax payment (without penalty) for Sr Citizens?

As of now, no separate extension has been announced specifically for Self Assessment Tax payment without penalty for senior citizens. While the due date for non-audited ITR filing has been extended from 31 July to 16 September 2025, the deadline for paying Self Assessment Tax (to avoid interest under Section 234A/B/C) typically aligns with the original due date. However, senior citizens (aged 60+) not having income from business or profession are generally exempt from advance tax. It’s advisable to pay any remaining tax dues promptly to avoid interest or penalty, unless further clarification or extension is officially notified by the CBDT.

Many thanks for the information.

I basically asked the question so as to be put on record for every one to see.

Realistically, this tax payment last date should have been , also, extended to match with itr filing, since the outstanding tax becomes visible after filling up the ITR form, when sr citizens pay it.

Itr-2 is yet to be released on ITR portal, so difficult for many to calculate any outstanding tax to be paid.
