March 31 is an important date for income taxpayers in India as a number of changes are going to kick in from April 1. While some of these changes are according to the announcements made by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in Union Budget 2021, some others are important tasks that taxpayers should complete before the start of the new Financial Year.

Here’s a look at 10 important changes

1. Last Date to file ITR for FY 2019-20

March 31 is the last date for filing Income Tax returns for Financial Year 2019-20. This deadline has already been extended multiple times because of the Covid-19 pandemic. Those who have not yet filed their returns will have to pay a late fee to do it by March 31.

2. Last date to revise ITR for FY 2019-20

Taxpayers are allowed to revise their returns if filed with errors previously. The deadline for ITR revision is the end of the relevant assessment year, i.e. March 31, 2021.

In the new Financial year, senior citizens above 75 years of age will be exempted from filing income tax returns. This facility will be available to only those senior citizens who have no other income other than pension and interest income.

9. ITR forms pre-filed

In the new Financial Year, the Income Tax Department will provide pre-filled Income Tax Returns (ITR). This is expected to ease compliance for the taxpayer.
