March is a crucial month for financial planning, with several important deadlines for tax-saving investments, income tax return updates, and special fixed deposit (FD) schemes. Staying informed can help individuals make smart financial decisions before the month ends.
For those opting for the old tax regime, March 31, 2025, marks the deadline for tax-saving investments. Eligible options include:
Making these investments before the deadline can help lower taxable income and maximise savings.
Taxpayers who missed reporting income or made errors in their previous returns can file an updated return (ITR-U) before March 31, 2025. This gives individuals an opportunity to correct mistakes and comply with tax regulations.
EPF members should activate their Universal Account Number (UAN) by March 15, 2025, to receive benefits under the Employees’ Deposit Linked Insurance (EDLI) scheme. The EDLI scheme provides insurance coverage of up to ₹7 lakh to eligible EPF subscribers.
March 2025 is packed with important financial deadlines, from tax-saving investments to income tax return updates. Individuals should plan their finances carefully and take advantage of these opportunities before the deadlines to maximise their savings and benefits.
