ITR-2, ITR-3 Form Release Date Update: The Income Tax Department has so far released only the offline and online utilities for ITR-1 and ITR-4 to facilitate income tax return (ITR) filing. However, utilities for other forms, such as ITR-2 and ITR-3, are still pending.
Although the filing deadline has been extended to 15 September 2025, taxpayers remain anxious for the release of the remaining ITR form utilities.
Taxpayers have voiced their frustration on social media over the delay. One user on platform ‘X’ urged that the utilities for ITR-2 and ITR-3 be released without further delay. Meanwhile, chartered accountants have also questioned why the Income Tax Department has remained silent on the timeline for releasing the Excel utilities.
