Do not forget as it is the last date for online filling of ITR for the FY 2011-12

The IT (Income Tax) Department provides an extended time for filing late ITR (Income Tax Return) till 2 years after the end of a particular Financial Year (FY). Therefore, you still have time to file your IT return for the financial year 2011-12.till 31st March 2014.

Remember, beyond 31st March 2014 you will never be able to file your ITR online for this FY. The only option you would have after two years is to file a manual ITR which itself is cumbersome and should be avoided at any cost.

Save yourself from this hassle and file your ITR for 2011-12 as you still have 5 days time!
