What is income tax return filing?

An Income Tax Return (ITR) is the form in which you report your income, deductions, tax paid and tax payable to the Income Tax Department for a financial year. Returns are filed online on the income tax e-filing portal. The correct ITR form depends on who you are and how you earn:

  • ITR-1: salaried individuals with simple income up to the prescribed limit
  • ITR-2: individuals with capital gains or multiple house properties, but no business income
  • ITR-3: individuals and HUFs with business or professional income
  • ITR-4: individuals, HUFs and firms opting for presumptive taxation
  • ITR-5: partnership firms and LLPs
  • ITR-6: companies

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you file my ITR if I live in Koyambedu and work elsewhere in Chennai?

Yes. We file returns online for individuals and businesses anywhere in Chennai; you can share documents on WhatsApp or email.

What is the due date for filing income tax returns?

For individuals and businesses not requiring an audit, the usual due date is 31 July. Taxpayers requiring a tax audit generally have until 31 October. The government sometimes extends these dates.

What happens if I miss the due date?

You can file a belated return, but a late fee of up to ₹5,000 applies (₹1,000 if total income is up to ₹5 lakh), interest may be charged and some losses cannot be carried forward.

Should I choose the old or the new tax regime?

The new regime is the default and has lower rates but fewer deductions. The old regime may suit you if you claim large deductions such as home loan interest. We compare both before filing.

I run a shop near the Koyambedu market. Which ITR form do I file?

Proprietors usually file ITR-3, or ITR-4 if they opt for presumptive taxation and meet its conditions.
