How to File My Tax returns |
|
| |
Q: How can I file my paper return?
A: We highly recommend that you eFile and not do manual filing as that helps with expedited return processing.
However, if you want to file manually, TaxMunshi also provides a complete and accurate ITR-1/2 in pdf version. Print this form and sign it based on teh instructions provided. You can submit the form physically to your Local Income Tax office by July 31st for the previous Assessment Year.
Q: How can I e-file my return?
A: Following are the steps to e-file your returns
1. You will be provided an option at the end of your ITR preparation to
a. eFile with Digital Signature
b. eFile without Digital signature
2. Chose the option that is applies to you. If you do not already have a Digital Signature, we recommend eFile without Digital signature. If you have a Digital signature that you want to use , pls. make sure it is registered at with Income Tax Department
3. Once we eFile your return successfully, you will receive an acknowledgement email from ITD
4. Incase the return is digitally signed; on generation of "Acknowledgement" the Return Filing process gets completed. You may take a printout of the Acknowledgement for your record.
5. Incase the return is not digitally signed, on successful uploading of e-Return, the ITR-V Form would be generated which needs to be printed by the tax payers on colour printer. This is an acknowledgement cum verification form. The tax payer has to fill-up the verification part and verify the same. A duly verified ITR-V form should be mailed to "Income Tax Department - CPC, Post Bag No - 1, Electronic City Post Office, Bangalore - 560100, Karnataka" within 120 days after the date of transmitting the data electronically. In case, Form ITR-V, is furnished after the above mentioned period, it will be deemed that the return in respect of which the Form ITR-V has been filed was never furnished and it shall be incumbent on the assessee to electronically re-transmit the data and follow it up by submitting the new Form ITR-V within thirty days. This completes the Return filing process for non-digitally signed Returns.
Q: What is e-filing?
A: Currently, the Income Tax Department provides a unique functionality to tax payers via its efiling website. Using this functionality, any tax payer can just upload an XML file that is compatible to Income tax Department's requirements
Q: Paper based tax filing vs. e-filing?
A: Currently, the Income Tax Department provides tax payers two options to file their taxes. One is to use paper based ITR forms and the second option is to use e-filing at Income Tax Department's website mentioned below. We encourage our users to use e-filing since it is more convenient, less time taking and much more accurate. It is also environment friendly.
Q: What are the benefits of efiling with digital signature certificate (DSC)?
A: There is only one benefit to using Digital Signature Certificate. If you use Digital Signature Certificate, you will not need to physically send the ITR-V. However, this comes at an additional cost and we at Paisaa Innovative Solutions encourage our customers to directly mail the ITR-V to the Income Tax Department , CPC, Post Bag No - 1, Electronic City Post Office, Bangalore - 560100, Karnataka within thirty days after the date of transmitting the data electronically. Even if you decide to purchase a Digital Signature Certificate, you can use our service to generate accurate XML file at a very low cost and upload it at the Income Tax Department website.
