An income tax return, or ITR, as it is commonly called, is a document filed by a taxpayer with the Income Tax Department of India. ITR reflects your contribution directly to public services and infrastructure. This contains all the information you need about your income sources, deductions & exemptions, tax liabilities, and filing information.
e-filing of income tax returns is mandatory for registered companies, individuals, HUFs, or other professionals. Based on the type of taxpayer, there are multiple income tax return forms filed. Every taxpayer should complete their ITR filing within the deadline to avoid penalties.
