If you don’t have any Losses in current year which are to be carried forward to next years , and Losses from Previous years which are carried forward this year and If you don’t have any Income from Profits and Gains from Business or profession then you can file ITR-2
Good Article; but NOT Complete in all respectsBut what is the use if we are unable to file ITR in new portal?.
You can file ITR-1 now in the new portal. But sometimes there can be issues but you can try again next day
Rexpected Sir,
A person having only 100 shares of one unlisted private limited firm, has filed any other ITR in stead of ITR 2, what is the penalty for that.
Thanks with regards,
While processing your return Tax officer will intimate you if he find your return Defect
But you can file a revised return since the deadline is september 30, whereas interest penalty under 234A you may have to pay
I am facing following problems in filling ITR 1
1. Tax paid shown is less than that shown in 26AS
2.I have deductions under 80D towards Mediclaim. When I click on “Go to Schedule ” i am being taken to e filing portal, but I am not able to find the schedule. what to do?
3.One day I partly filled the return and closed the portal, next day when I opened to resume filing it indicated the details for resuming the filing. Again I closed he portal, next day when i opened it indicated “You have no draft saved”. Why is it happening?
Please enlighten me.
1) that’s the technical issue. you need to manually enter the correct figure from 26AS.
2) when you select 80D – YES, you can save the page and in the next page “Deductions” you can fill the 80d details. I have done it
3) that’s the technical glitch again. I have submitted the return and later when i check i don’t find the submitted return. But don’t worry, wait for a day or 2 and it will appear again. You will also find issue witb aadhaar otp verification but you can try again after few hours or next day.
It has been excellent performance by Hari Prasad Reddy.Has excellent skill set on working for GST and other income tax return .
Super broo keep it up all the best
