You heard finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman’s announcement on 24 March that tax-related deadlines have been extended from 31 March to 30 June.
So even as the new financial year (FY) 2020-21 begins, you need not worry about some of the paperwork you may have left for the last minute.
But as you wait out the covid-19 lockdown at home, it’s a good opportunity to take care of unfinished tasks, instead of leaving them for later in these uncertain times, when a new day can bring new challenges of various kinds.
According to the announcement, all tax-related deadlines falling between 20 March and 29 June have now been extended till 30 June.
