DHAKA, May 7, 2025 (BSS) - More than 16 lakh taxpayers have already filed their income tax returns through online this year while more than 20 lakh taxpayers have completed registration for e-returns. 

The online income tax return filing system by the National Board of Revenue (NBR) has received a huge response from the taxpayers. 

Based on the demands and opinions from the taxpayers, the online return filing process has been gradually simplified and made more taxpayer-friendly and as a result of this, there has been such hike in return submission and registration through online, said an NBR press release here today.

It said the National Board of Revenue (NBR) has continued to operate the online income tax return filing service even after the Income Tax Day. 

Besides, if any mistake is noticed by the taxpayer in the return submissions after filing of the return, then that individual can easily file a revised return through online even staying at home under section 180(2) of the Income Tax Act-2023 within 180 days of filing the original return. 

Till date, some 7,225 taxpayers have filed their revised returns through online. 

The Revenue Board thanks the taxpayers who filed their income tax returns through online and thus encourages them to avail online services for filing income tax returns and obtaining income tax certificates.
