Got questions?

We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

What is due date extension?

What is a Due Date Extension? This plan provides flexibility for customers who know ahead of time that they will not be able to pay their bill by the due date. Due Date Extension is a good option for customers that need additional time to settle their invoice, without having to pay late fees.

What is the downside to filing a tax extension?

An extension gives you extra time to file, but not extra time to pay. After you file an extension, if you owe taxes when you file your return, you might also have to pay penalties and interest on the tax due.

Is the income tax return date extended?

The due date for filing of Income Tax Returns (ITRs) for AY 2025-26, originally due on 31st July 2025, was extended to 15th September 2025. The Central Board of Direct Taxes has decided to further extend the due date for filing these ITRs for AY 2025-26 from 15th September, 2025 to 16th September, 2025.

What if I miss the October 15 tax deadline?

If you miss the October extended tax filing deadline, youll have failure-to-file penalties that are retroactive to your original filing date (typically October 15) and, potentially, failure-to-pay penalties retroactive to the original payment due date (typically April 15) if you still owe taxes.

Was the 2025 tax deadline extended?

Accordingly, certain deadlines falling on or after Jan. 7, 2025, and before Oct. 15, 2025, are postponed until Oct. 15, 2025. As a result, affected individuals and businesses will have until Oct. 15, 2025, to file returns and pay any taxes that were originally due during this period.
