Taxpayers can contact the department’s helpdesk, which is open throughout the day today to assist taxpayers in filing ITR, making tax payments and other related services. As per Section 234F of the Income Tax Act 1961, whoever files ITR late will have to pay a penalty of up to Rs 5,000.

Facing problem

If the annual income of small taxpayers is less than Rs 5 lakh, then they will have to pay a fine of Rs 1,000. With the completion of the deadline of 31 August, many tax payers are in a hurry to pay the tax. But many tax payers are facing one or the other problem while filing their returns. Those who did not file tax returns for any reason took to Twitter to raise their voice. Also demanded to extend the last date.

ITR filing portal down

User Amit Sharma wrote that ITR filing portal is down, please tell when it will be valid? Another user Prakash wrote that the website is down for two days and it is difficult to access. How should we pay tax? Krishna Arora wrote that the page is loading now, unable to fill ITR, every time the problem related to login is coming. ‘ITR Portal Slow’, ‘Waive Late Fee’, ‘Extend ITR Deadline’ are trending on Twitter regarding ITR.

This is the complete plan of the government, although it has already been clarified by the Finance Secretary that the government does not have any plan to extend the last date for filing ITR. The Finance Secretary had said in the past that this time more ITR returns have been filed than last year. Let us tell you that according to the update till now, this time more than 6 crore tax payers have filed returns.
