FAQ :
The deadline to file a belated Income Tax Return (ITR) is December 31 of the assessment year.
A penalty of £5,000 applies if filed before December 31. After December 31 but before March 31, the penalty is £10,000. If your total income is up to £5 lakh, the penalty is reduced to £1,000.
Common reasons include missing the deadline, delays in receiving necessary documents, personal issues, financial difficulties, complex tax situations, errors, unawareness of requirements, technical issues, changes in tax status, and administrative delays.
Yes, filing a belated ITR can help avoid further penalties and legal complications, even if filed past the original deadline.
