For people with an annual income of over Rs 2.5 lakh, filing an ITR is mandatory. Failing to do so may attract fines and penalties
In the Finance Bill, 2022, the government introduced the concept of 'updated ITR'. It allows the assessee to file the ITR within 24 months of the expiry of a financial year
Filing your income tax return on time is always the best option. We explain what happens when you file it late
Failure to do so can result in penalties for the legal heir
Once the ITR 2021-22 is filed, the taxpayer needs to verify their return within 120 days, or it is deemed invalid
The income tax department (I-T department) has fixed the deadline as July 31, 2022. If the ITR is not filed before the due date, the taxpayer may be subjected to monetary or criminal punishment
If the income is above Rs 2.5 lakh per annum, you are required to file the ITR to avoid penalties. There are several penalties that are applicable if one fails to file the ITR before the last date
There are several transactions that one needs to mention mandatorily in the ITR 2021-22 (AY 2022-23). It is necessary to avoid a notice from the I-T department
Such transactions attract special attention from the income tax (I-T) department and are mandatory to be furnished. If not, they may lead to fines, penalties or even jail term

Failure in filing the ITR of a deceased person makes the heir liable to pay the penalty or fines. It may also lead to some penal consequences
The taxpayers are required to fill out several forms, Form 26AS, Form 16, capital gains statement, and interest certificates, among others. In all the paperwork, some mistakes are bound to happen
Filing ITR is mandatory in order to claim deductions under Chapter VI and exemptions on long-term capital gains; but there are other benefits you need to know about
A Form 26AS contains all tax-related information of a taxpayer such as TDS, TCS, advance tax paid by the assessee, self-assessment tax payments, details about income tax refunds, and other details
The documents you collect for this purpose will prove handy if an assessing officer conducts inquiry
