Due date extension ?

1. Shouldn't there be a notification for extending due date? I have only come accross tweets by incometaxindia declaring that due date has been extended till Oct. 15th, 2018.

2. It further states that liability to pay interest u/s234A of ITAct will remain. Is this even legally valid or enforceable? S. 234A can be invoked only where the return has not been filed within due date or has not been filed at all. 

Thank you.
