   # Income Tax Returns ## [Income Tax Returns FAQs](https://www.incometax.gov.in/iec/foportal/help/all-topics/e-filing-services/%20income%20tax%20returns-faq) ### 4. Under which Act will the ITR for income earned during FY 2025 -26 be filed? Even though the filing will typically occur after 1st April, 2026 (i.e., after the new Act has come into force), the return relates to a tax year beginning before 1st April, 2026 and is therefore governed entirely by the old Act. ### 5. Which ITR form should be used for AY 2026 -27? For AY 2026 -27, the ITR forms (ITR -1, ITR -2, ITR -3, ITR -4, ITR -5, ITR -6, ITR -7) applicable under the Income Tax Act, 1961 will soon be notified. These forms will be available on the e -filing portal well before the due date. ### 8. Can a taxpayer file an updated return (ITR -U) for AY 2026 -27 under the old Act after the new Act comes into force? Yes. The updated return for AY 2026 -27 under Section 139(8A) of the old Act can be filed within the time period prescribed therein, even after the new Act has come into force. The old Act continues to govern all proceedings relating to tax years before 1st April, 2026. X filed his original ITR for AY 2026 -27 on 25th July, 2026. He can file an updated return (ITR -U) for AY 2026 -27 under the old Act, subject to the time limits and additional tax requirem ents prescribed in Section 139(8A) of the old Act. ### 16. Are AY 2026 -27 and Tax Year 2026 -27 the same? These are two entirely separate compliance obligations: The due date is 31st July, 2026 or 31st August for non -audit cases , etc. (ii) For Tax Year 2026 -27 (income of FY 2026 -27): This return is not due until July 2027. However, the taxpayer should keep track of income, TDS, and advance tax payments under the new Act framework from April 2026 onwards. The e -filing portal will support compliances under both the Acts simultaneously. ### 24. The tax audit report for FY 2025 -26 will be filed after 1st April, 2026. Which Act will govern the filing of the tax audit report for FY 2025 -26 (AY2026 -27)? 2026 . ### 26. Will the e -filing portal simultaneously supports filings under both the old and new Acts? Yes. ### 27. How should taxpayers keep records for the transition year to ensure smooth filing under both Acts? Last reviewed and updated on : 06-Nov-2026
