Income Tax Due Date Calculator: assumptions and common mistakes
A useful estimate starts with the right inputs. Check the following assumptions and limits before applying the result to your situation.
- The sample date is not a determination of your filing deadline. Audit status, filing type and CBDT extensions can change due dates; verify at https://www.incometax.gov.in .
- Check whether endpoints are included and which weekend or holiday settings apply. An entered deadline is not a live notification from an authority.
