Hi !
You can file your belated IT Returns anytime on or before 1 year from the end of the relevant Assessment Year(AY).
For example, for the AY 2017-18, a belated return can be filed on or before 31st March 2019.
However, with the amendment vide Finance Act 2016, from AY 2017-18 belated IT belated returns should be filed before the end of the relevant AY.
Through the above amendment, the time limit for filing of belated return has been reduced by 1 year.
So, for the AY 2017-18 , a belated return can only be filed on or before 31st march 2018.
Hence Due to Amendment you cannot File ITR for AY 2017-18 after 31st march 2018.
Hope this clears the situation.
