Sir in my account,
Intraday equity trading cash (non f&o): loss 265/
Total turnover: 500/ only
STCG from share: 210000/
STCG from debt mutual fund: 25000/
LTCG from mutual fund: 97000/
Savings account interest income: 45000/
Commissions: 3700/ only (YDS deducted u/s 194H)
Since total income above basic exemption limit of 250000/ and loss in intraday equity,I can't opt 44AD as commission is there.

So,books of accounts and audit mandatory for me?
Please help as I'm confused and worried a bit too,
Thanks

A person works as a gold appraiser for various banks, providing valuation services for pledged gold. The banks have deducted TDS under Section 194JB. He is not a certified or formally qualified appraiser, but he has the necessary technical skills and experience in gold valuation.

*He operates independently and provides services for multiple banks.
*He does not maintain any books of accounts.

Based on the above, I seek clarification on the correct tax treatment:
1. Can the income be shown under Section 44ADA (as technical consultancy), even though he is not formally qualified?
2. Alternatively, should the income be shown under Section 44AD as business income?
3. If filing under ITR-3, how should the income be reported without maintaining books of accounts?

My husband passed away in December 2024. As his spouse, I will be acting as his legal representative to file his Income Tax Return for the financial year 2024–25, based on the income he earned up to the date of his passing.

Are we required to report these receipts in our respective Income Tax Returns?
If yes, could you please clarify the applicable section under which this income should be declared?
Are we required to submit any supporting documents for these receipts?

Suppose on sale of equity shares in F.Y 2024-25
Short Term Profit-Rs 2000
Long Term Profit-Rs 15000
As there is exemption limit of upto Rs 125000 under LTCG, Is it neccessary to mention amount of capital gain in ITR as there will be no tax payable

A manpower company based in Chennai recruits personnel to serve as security guards and for other allied services, deploying them to various government agencies, banks, private establishments, and other authorities. The minimum wages and allowances (Pay plus variable Dearness Allowance) payable to these contract labourers have been fixed at ₹21,000.

My query is: Who is responsible for the deduction and remittance of Professional Tax payable by these contract labourers to the respective Local Bodies? All such labourers fall within the taxable slabs and are therefore liable to pay Professional Tax. Specifically, does the responsibility lie with the manpower company, or with the organization that engages these labourers on a contractual basis?

Good Evening,
One of my clients received RCM lorry freight value in GSTR-2B. But actually he did not receive any transport service from the particular Transportar. Hence he has to pay the RCM amount now. When i try to reject this from IMS dashboard. There is no RCM entry.How to reject the above transaction? Please Guide me.

One of my new clients (Govt. Emoployee) has an old demand for AY 2012-13 showing up on the income tax portal under the Outstanding Demand tab. The demand is around Rs. 49,000 and interest has accumulated to about Rs. 53,000 total Rs. 1,02,000.
The issue is that in Form 26AS, the TDS entry for that year still shows Status of Booking: P (Provisional), so the credit hasn't been given.
We tried reaching out to his ex-employer from 2012 to revise their TDS return so that the status changes to F (Final) but they are not cooperating at all. There’s also nothing pending or visible in e-Proceedings.
Has anyone dealt with a similar issue? What’s the way forward when the deductor doesn’t respond or revise the TDS return? Would really appreciate any guidance or practical suggestions.

Thanks in advance!
