Posted on by Webmaster

This is to notify all the concerned taxpayers that the Personal Income Tax (PIT) filing due date for
Income Year 2015 has been extended till 15th March 2016.

Those taxpayers who are not able to file their PIT return electronically due to poor system
performance are requested to file manually. All the RRCOs will accept the manual submission of
PIT returns. Taxpayers residing away from the RRCOs can also file their PIT using the postal
services. However, returns must be sent through post before the extended due date to avoid
penalties.

Further, all the PIT filers are requested to check their filing status. Tax returns with status shown as “draft” or “payment awaited” are requested to either file the return or make the payment within the
due date. If the returns are filed properly, the status will be shown as “filing complete”. No
separate acknowledgement will be sent to the filers.
