The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) has released the updated version of the Income-tax Act, 1961, incorporating amendments introduced by the Finance Act, 2025. The consolidated and user-friendly version of the statute is now accessible on the official Income Tax Department website under the "All Acts" section.

The updated document spans 929 records across 93 pages, offering taxpayers, professionals, and researchers improved access to key provisions. Users can navigate the law more efficiently with the ability to compare section-wise or chapter-wise content, select specific sections, and perform text-based searches using one or multiple keywords separated by spaces.
This move is aimed at enhancing transparency, ease of reference, and compliance with tax laws, particularly for chartered accountants, tax practitioners, and legal professionals who frequently refer to the Income-tax Act.
