Though the due date of filing of income tax return has been extended, there is no extension or relaxation from interest liability if the same is not paid within the original due date if the amount of tax payable exceeds Rs. 1 Lakh. Taxpayers with net tax liability exceeding Rs. 1 Lakh is advised to make the payment at the earliest so as to avoid the interest liability u/s 234A of the Income Tax Act-1961.
