Here Are Some Key Points About Types Of Tax Returns
- ITR-1 (Sahaj): This form is for individual taxpayers who have income from salary, one house property, other sources (excluding lottery winnings and income from horse racing), and whose total income does not exceed Rs. 50 lakhs. It is suitable for resident individuals.
- ITR-2: Used by individuals and Hindu Undivided Families (HUFs) who have income from multiple sources, such as salary, house property, capital gains, and foreign assets. It is also used by individuals who are not eligible to file ITR-1.
- ITR-3: This form is for individuals and HUFs with income from business or profession. It is used when income is reported under the presumptive taxation scheme or when tax audit is required.
- ITR-4 (Sugam): Applicable to individuals, HUFs, and firms (other than LLPs) with income from business or profession under the presumptive taxation scheme (Section 44AD, 44ADA, or 44AE).
- ITR-5: Used by firms, Association of Persons (AOPs), and Body of Individuals (BOIs), Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs), and Artificial Juridical Persons (AJP).
- ITR-6: Applicable to companies other than companies claiming exemption under Section 11 (income from property held for charitable or religious purposes).
- ITR-7: This form is used by persons, including companies, that are required to furnish returns under Sections 139(4A), 139(4B), 139(4C), and 139(4D) of the Income Tax Act. It includes trusts, political parties, research associations, and more.
- ITR-4S (Sugam): Previously used for presumptive income tax calculation for businesses with a turnover of up to Rs. 2 crores, it has been discontinued, and taxpayers falling under this category should use ITR-4.
- ITR-V: This is not an income tax return form but an acknowledgment of filing the return. After filing an e-return online, taxpayers must verify it by sending a signed ITR-V to the Central Processing Centre (CPC), Bengaluru. However, the use of ITR-V has been largely replaced by electronic verification methods like Aadhaar OTP or net banking.
- It's important for taxpayers to understand their tax obligations and to file accurate and timely tax returns to avoid potential penalties and legal consequences. Tax laws and regulations can vary widely from one country to another, so taxpayers should consult with tax professionals or refer to official tax authority guidance to ensure compliance with the specific tax laws that apply to them.
