The court is warning the CBDT of contempt proceedings for failing to comply with a Gujarat High Court order to extend the ITR filing deadline for audited cases.
The deadline for filing ITRs for assessees required to get their accounts audited under Section 44AB of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
The original deadline was October 31, 2025, and the proposed extended deadline is November 30, 2025.

The Punjab & Haryana High Court expects the necessary orders to be passed by October 29, 2025.
No, the ITR filing deadline for non-audited taxpayers remains unchanged.
