India’s tax system includes a series of deadlines throughout the fiscal year (April 1 to March 31) for various tax-related activities. The Income Tax Department’s calendar is essential for compliance, financial management, and optimizing tax liabilities.
Following the tax calendar helps individuals and businesses meet legal requirements, avoiding penalties and legal issues. Being aware of tax deadlines supports effective financial planning and budgeting, ensuring funds are available for tax payments.
Understanding key dates also allows taxpayers to plan effectively and maximize deductions, exemptions, and other tax benefits.
