Friday is the last date to file the income tax returns. Tax returns for 2015-16 (assessment year 2016-17) were originally to be filed by July 31. But in view of the day-long strike at public sector banks, the deadline has been extended to August 5. Tax returns should be filed by 5 30 pm tomorrow in the income tax offices.
For Jammu and Kashmir, the deadline will be August 31 in view of the ongoing turmoil in the state.
