Hi Forum,

When choosing the ITO to submit the ITR, which income is determined?  For eg., for income above 15 lakhs the ACIT/DCIT need to be chosen and not the ITO, but on what basis is the income determined - on Gross Total Income or Net Taxable income?

If a person was filing returns to the ITO (less than 15 lakhs) till last year, and if this year the income exceeds 15 lakhs can he just switch the filing to the respective ACIT/DCIT?

Look forward to your replies and assistance.

Balaji Ramani.
