FAQ :
The Gujarat High Court has questioned the CBDT because it has not extended the Income Tax Return (ITR) filing deadline for FY 2024-25, despite extending the deadline for tax audit reports.
The deadline for filing tax audit reports has been postponed to October 31, 2025.

A previous Gujarat High Court order in September 2024 held that extending the tax audit report deadline without a corresponding ITR filing date extension could contravene the Income Tax Act.
The matter is scheduled for a further hearing on October 6, 2025.
