e-Filing tax returns in bangalore




Please see my another post where I have clearly mentioned about e-filing tax returns. In this post, I mention about the fine areas that you must take care.

a) after you get an acknowledgement, take two copies of the same and sign and submit to relevant IT department.
b) Digital signatures are expensive, so you need to submit within 15 days.
c) the concept of 15 days is a buffer to determine the date of filing. In case you file online on 1st July, you are needed to submit acknowledgement within July 15th. Then you date of tax filing is considered as July 1st. In case you submit acknowledgement on July 16th, that is after 15 days of your online filing, then your tax return filing date is considered as July 16th.
d) In case you are NRI, the assessment officer is shown IT range14 (ward 6). But when you go to Mehri circle, HMT Bhavan, floor 4, south wing, you are asked to go to floor 3, room 303, helpline who in turn ask you to go to Nruputanhga road, IT office-6th floor as you are NRI. So please note your correct range/ward assesing office in your city in case you are NRI.

e) If you file using ITR-2 format xml, please mention the status NRI/individual and the correct range/ward office
f) Even if your taxable income is NIL, you can file e-tax returns.
