You can use ITR-4 (sugam) for filling returns. 194 J Income can be disclosed as income from profession u/s 44ADA where you can claim upto 50% of income as expense

The amount is very less 15000 and tds deducted was 300 , someone was saying to file itr1 and mention it in income from other source,?

Computer scientist

Yes that can also be done as the amount is not high

Hi, experts 
I was filing itr, so needed help, I started my job from May 2022, but before that I did an internship where I got salary credited to my account , it was around 1500 for one month (March) for this assessment year and also they did deduct a tds of around 300 rupees which I can see on my itr home page . So should I include those amount in my gross income while filing tds ( I have only included my current gross salary) ?

Need help for ITR

I received my internship (that I did in my final year) stipend in July with 10℅ tds deduction under 194JB that is mentioned I  

Later same year I joined other other company full time and received  regular salary and received another form 16.

Now I'm confused which itr to file and how to proceed.

Hi community, really love the support I get from folks here. Thanks a lot. Here is another thing I need some opinions on.

I did an internship last year and there was some TDS deducted. That was my only source of main income. I checked the Form26AS and yes it was present along with some TDS on my MF investment and all.

Now this is my first time filing ITR, how should I go approach?

Get a CA? If yes, how to contact one? How much do they usually charge?

File by myself?

Or any tips you have would be really appreciated. You can also share your experience. 

Thank you 😊.

Income- tax Return

Just want to get inputs from those who freelance along with being salaried. I am wondering how people do ITR filing when they’re directly receiving payment from their clients abroad (inward remittance) on their own name (no company created for offering ur service) as well as have their monthly salary ? As much as I’ve read you would be filing ITR-4 but then wouldn’t this reveal to ur current or next employer that u worked 2 places?
Really curious to know as it’s ITR filing time.

Wouldn’t ITR be a mess for salaried employee who also freelances?

I joined a company in a business/product role last October, realised it is not at all what i was told in terms of culture and expected work( detailed reason not important to the advice I need). Basic training was going on and i resigned in 13 days. It was an amicable resignation with my hiring manager(great guy btw) and org boss. HR said we will not pay you a salary as to adjust against  waiving off of notice period and stuff. I felt at that time it is ok as I did not wanted to serve the notice period(what is the point anyways). I also felt it is not justified to take that salary and wanted to quickly move to next steps. No money hits my bank account from the company as of writing this post.

Cut to this year June, I see an information mentioning a salary being paid to me for that October month while going through my TIS and AIS forms on ITR portal.
I reached out to the company as to clarify this.
I wanted them to provide me with a salary slip and form 16 at least if after all they are saying a salary is paid. 
They are not providing that saying it is adjusted.
I have a few questions here.

1. If a salary(more than 80k)  is mentioned in my tax(even it was so called adjusted), I must be provided with a salary slip right?
2. Am I missing something and am I in the wrong here?
3. What should be my next steps, I don’t want that  salary but shouldn’t they provide the salary slip and form 16 if it mentions it on my tax documents?

I did not wanted them on my employment history hence wanted no such hassle and here we are.
Need some inputs from people who understand these things. HRs or any other folks in the know.

Need advise/help.

Should I file ITR using ITR-2 form even if I have a few hundred rupees stock dividends and my income is less than 50 lakhs?

Which ITR form?

I just started my first full time job and will be filing ITR for 1st time next year, no one in my family has been in high tax slab previously so not much experience from there :D

Some questions:

- Almost 50% of my base pay is getting used in paying EMIs (Mostly mortgage) of my family, nothing is on my name, all on father's name, is there a way to claim this in deduction ?

- We have our own house in a tier 3 city and I'm getting 30k/month as HRA, what will be safe HRA amount to claim ?

- Can we claim any other expenses in deduction ? Leave travel allowance seems useless to me as I'm working remotely.

- Which tax regime do you prefer ? New or old ?

I could have done investments to save taxes but nothing is left after all the expenses and nothing on my name 😛

Advice needed for filing tax

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

I have been freelancing since Dec'23. They connected my account details via RIPPLING. They asked me to fill a form (W8-BEN) in which I had to add my PAN.

I pulled 26AS for 23-24 but not seeing anything from this company in there. 

Since this is my first time doing freelancing I'm not sure how to move from here. 
Should I add it as income from foreign sources? 
Or I need to do something else.


If someone has any experience in this field do enlighten me please 🙏

ITR for freelancing gig

I filed ITR yesterday via ClearTax. It was super smooth unlike the experience I had two years back. Had to pay 1.6k as it was classified as ITR3.

It automatically pulled data from Savings bank / FD interest details and from Groww. So had no manual entry in any step. Finally had to pay unlike last time (even for the unassisted process) and then even the step in IT portal was done automatically (via the APIs)

Overall, it went well and I could file in about 20 min.

Just wondering if it's all good or should I be worried if anything went wrong? Should I get a second review from any CA?

Note: I had to pay about 12k tax which CT calculated and I have paid the same.

Filing ITR via ClearTax

I had taken up a 5 year tax saver FD in previous financial year. Due to some weird reason, my company had rejected it and this investment under 80C does not reflect in Form 16. 
Now while filing ITR, should I add this amount of FD under 80C?
