ITR Filing

The deadline to file income tax returns is July 31, 2023 (Monday). If taxpayers fail to file their returns by the last date, then they may be liable to pay a penalty.

Check Form 26AS

All taxpayers must check their Form 26AS while filing their ITR 2023 as it is a document that contains details of all the taxes that have been deducted from your income during the financial year. Checking Form 26AS before filing your income tax returns is crucial to ensure that all the tax deductions have been correctly accounted for.

Include All Sources of Income

Another big mistake most of taxpayers make during the filing of their ITR is not including all sources of income while filing income tax returns. All sources of income including salary, interest income, rental income, and capital gains, should be included in your tax returns.

Claim All Deductions

Tax deduction is important to reduce your tax liability and many times taxpayers forget to claim deductions such as those for investments under Section 80C or medical expenses under Section 80D. You need to make sure to claim all the deductions that you are eligible for.
