    Hello,
    I am salaried person. I have invested Rs.10k in infrastructure bond in Dec 2012. But i didnot produce the receipt in my company. So in Form 16, this deduction is not shown.
    Now while filing returns, can i mention this amount and reduce by tax liability?
    Where should i show proof of investment?
    pls suggest.

    thanks,

    I have filled my Income Tax return ORIGINAL once, then found there was payable tax or Rs 10/- inside, so paid the same with Challan 280 (under 300 – Self Assessment Tax) via online ICICI portal. So to include the same in ITR-V, I again filled my Income Tax return as REVISED. But later verifying same I found I made minor mistake in specifying Income other than 2885 instead 2855 leading a difference of 30/- but not leading to any further Payable Tax or Refund. Shall I revised it again just to correct the amount under field “Income Other that Salary”?

    Please advised, I am in confusion it at all required to revised submitted REVISED INCOME TAX RETURN for sake of updating amount not impacting any other thing like Payable Tax or Refund?

    sir!
    i filed return on 20th July and sent ITR-V after signing. after a day i realized that I did not consider 1175/- deducted by SBI which was appearing in form 26AS. I paid self assessment tax on the FD income from SBI as per my tax slab. now, I want to file revised ITR and want the refund of 1400/- paid in excess of my liability.
    the real problem is i do not have ITR receipt number. can i not file revised ITR unless i get ITR-V receipt number? is there any way out of it?

    Hi,

    I filled ITR with option of tax pay, as I had to pay extra tax rs. 4310 due to the reason that my new company had not deducted tax on my monthly income of March (joined in March). Now I paid the extra tax using challan 280 and SBI netbanking. Do I need to send the proof of transaction with ITR form to income tax department?

    Or just sending the ITR form which has tax liability of rs. 4310 on me will solve the purpose?

    Please suggest.

    I have incorrectly calculated the 80C section and declared the same in my ITR. I have already posted this incorrectly declared ITR-V to Income Tax dept.
    1. Can I raise a rectification request online for correcting 80C?
    2. Should I wait till the ITR-V has been processed, to raise the rectification req?

      You may file revise return now.

    (…In continuation to my previous question)
    If I file my revise return now, before the ITR-V is processed, I do not have the CPC no.with me. This is required when I use the link MY ACCOUNT–> RECTIFICATION REQUEST link. Pls advise on what needs to be done.

      You need to check reason for return being defective.

      You won’t get any income tax benefit for payment interest or principal on personal loan.

    do we need to send any supporting documents (like bank statement, salary certificate, school fee reciept etc.) to income tax dpt Bangalore apart from the ITR-V.

      No supporting document is required to be attached with your ITRV. You should keep them seperately filed with you. these supporting documents -like salary crtificate , bank statement etc may be required in case of any query of income tax department.

    Hi,
    I read somewhere I can claim tax exemption on the money I lent to my wife. Under which section should I provide this to avail the tax benefits. Thanks.

      You can not claim any tax benefit for any amount you have let out to your wife.

    I sold a flat for 35 lakhs. Got part payment 13 lakhs in feb-march 2016 and part reg was done on 11-03-2016. Remaining amount of rupees 22 lakhs received on 11-04-16 and final reg was done on 11-04-16. My query is whether I should mention the same in my returns in July 2016 or in 2017 returns? I received money in two instalments in different financial years. Part reg done in march and remaining part (loan from bank) I got in April.
