The last date for filing Income Tax Returns has been increased from July 31 to August 5, 2017. This government decision is a relief for all the taxpayers who have not filed their income tax return so far. Since this morning, there were technical difficulties on the government website filing the income tax returns, which prevented people from filing their returns. In view of this, the government has decided to increase the last date for filing income tax returns.
