Income Tax: ITR-2 Enabled for Filing Return Through Online Mode

INDIA, JUL 18 – The Income Tax Department enabled online ITR-2 filing with pre-filled data after a 100-day delay due to Finance Act 2024 changes, extending the filing deadline to September 15, 2025.

  • The Income Tax Department activated online filing of ITR-2 with pre-filled data on its e-filing portal on July 17, 2025.
  • This activation follows delays in releasing ITR-2 and ITR-3 utilities, as well as an extended tax return deadline to September 15, 2025.
  • ITR-2 is intended for individuals and Hindu Undivided Families with income sources like salary, pension, capital gains, and excludes business income filers who must use ITR-3.
  • By mid-July 2025, more than 14.1 million returns had been submitted, with over 11.2 million of these verified returns processed through both online and Excel filing tools.
  • The online ITR-2 filing method aims to reduce errors and save time by auto-filling certain fields and providing a step-by-step guided process, enhancing user convenience.
