There are two main ways to file your Income Tax Return (ITR) in India:
- E-filing: This is the online method, and it’s generally faster and more convenient. You can e-file your ITR through the official Income Tax Department’s e-filing portal [Income Tax Department India].
Here’s a general guide to e-filing your ITR:
- Register or Login: If you haven’t already, you’ll need to register on the Income Tax e-filing portal. You’ll use your PAN (Permanent Account Number) as your user ID.
- Select the ITR Form: There are different ITR forms for different types of taxpayers. You’ll need to choose the appropriate form based on your income and filing status.
- Fill in the Details: The portal will guide you through the process of filling in your income details, deductions, taxes paid, etc. You can also pre-fill some information from Form 16 (if you have received one from your employer).
- Verification and Submission: Once you’ve filled in all the details, you’ll need to verify your return electronically. You can do this using various methods, such as Aadhaar or net banking. After successful verification, you can submit your ITR.
- Offline Filing: You can also file your ITR offline by downloading the ITR form from the Income Tax Department website and filling it out manually. Then, you’ll need to submit the completed form along with any required documents to the Income Tax Department.
