5 August 2026

Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D - 7 August 2026
The Income-tax Rules, 2026 require a deductor other than a government office to deposit tax deducted in any month other than March within seven days from the end of that month, so tax deducted in July 2026 is due by 7 August 2026. Only tax deducted in March gets until 30 April.
