There were demands to extend the financial year in light of the shutdown that was put in place to combat the coronavirus, COVID-19. There was a demand that this financial year should be made a 15-month year - which was different from other financial years – to combat the COID-19.
This change was earlier notified to be implemented from April 1, 2020. However, due to the prevailing situation, it has been decided that the date of implementation will now be postponed to the first of July.
The Reserve Bank of India on February 15, 2020, announced that it will change its financial year to align its financial year with the governments.
