I want to know if CBDT has issued any notification further extending the last date of e-filing ITR-1 beyond 30.09.2021 for AY 2021-22 in view of the glitches in the new filing portal?

Not till date. But expected. Even if extended, it may be announced only after 25th Sep.

Yes, all these deductions are available even for senior citizens if opted for old tax regime. But if new tax regime is opted for, then no.

Thank you for instant reply.
Then, which tax regime(old or new) will be beneficial for a senior citizen who has no investment under section 80C in FY 2020-21 but has only a mediclaim policy of about Rs. 20,000/-

This would depend upon the taxable income. If new regime is opted for, then 80d deduction cannot be availed
