July 31, 2026 is the due date to file income tax return (ITR) by salaried individuals, pensioners, students and other taxpayers who are not required to conduct a tax audit. However, the revised ITR due date is March 31, 2027 for AY 2026-2027. The catch is a revised ITR can be filed only if you have filed an original ITR which is yet to be processed.
So you may wonder, what if you file the ITR now in a rush without organising the statements and documents, just based on the auto-fill information and later file a revised ITR to correct it? It may sound like a good idea, but this could be a mistake.
