Should I pay the exact self assessment tax or a little more???. If there is a shortfall as per 143(1) and i pay BEFORE DUE DATE OF FILING ITR, is there any penalty or interest. I AM SENIOR CITIZEN

Respected Sir,

One of our client GTA was providing services under forward charges @12% & having 5 Lorries which have purchased in May-2022. But Unfortunately, proprietor died in July-25, now we have applied for closure of this business as family don't want to continue.
Sir, my query is that : should we reverse the ITC taken on above lorries by reducing the ITC amount 5% per quarter basis and we have to pay 35% of ITC availed (ITC Availing time 3 years + 1 Quarter = 13 Quarter i.e. 65%)? Or we can avail any exemption in this exceptional case.

Kindly Advise.

Dear Expert,

I seek your guidance regarding the applicability of e-invoicing and the 30-day reporting requirement under GST based on the following facts:

My aggregate turnover in FY 2023–24 was below 10 crore.

During FY 2024–25, my aggregate turnover exceeded 10 crore only in March 2025.

I did not generate e-invoices for B2B transactions issued in April and May 2024, these e-invoices were generated on 10th August 2025.

The time limit 30-day e-invoicing reporting rule was notified as effective from 1st April 2025.

In this context, I request your guidance on the following:

1. Does the e-invoicing mandate, along with the 30-day reporting rule, apply retrospectively to invoices issued in April and May 2024, even though my turnover was below 10 crore at that time and only crossed the threshold at the end of FY 2024–25?

2. Can I be held liable for non-compliance or delayed compliance in generating e-invoices for the above-mentioned period, considering that the mandate became applicable only after my turnover exceeded the prescribed limit at financial year-end?

3. If e-invoicing and the 30-day limit are applicable in this scenario, what specific penalties or consequences might arise due to the delay in e-invoice generation for April and May 2024?

The GST portal continues to allow generation of IRNs for April–May 2024 invoices in August 2025.

Thank you for your valuable guidance.

Sir,

I showed my total retiree's pension income under salary. 12 Errors, all same - "Please select nature of exempt allowances option from the drop down of B3 of schedule salary"

All the items under the exempt allowances field have zero value. I tried checking the box 'Any other' with zero value and confirming but on Verification the errors continue.

Please suggest how I could overcome this.

Thanks

While preparing my ITR-3 online for AY 2025-26 on the Income-tax e-filing portal, I notice the following issue in Part A – General Information:

I have already filed Form 10IEA (Ack No. 453xxxxxxx, Date 26-Jul-2025) to opt out of the new tax regime under section 115BAC(6).

The portal pre-populates these details, but the field “Do you wish to continue to opt out of New Tax Regime for current assessment year?” is ticked No.

On switching it to Yes, the acknowledgement number and date fields turn blank and field become grey non-editable.

In last AY 24-25, I Opted out New regime through filing form 10AEI. Portal pick up details acknowledgement and date automatically of Last FY 24-25 with ticked "Yes" but in Current FY 25-26 with ticked "No". It's preventing me filing ITR under Old Regime. When I continue it with blank field, and file the form, at the time of submission after verifying return by putting OTP, it throws error that you have opted out new regime by filing 10AEI, please provide acknowledgement no and date in relevant field. Any Solution????

A house is in mother's name. The income from house property is received by her daughter. A Joint home loan was taken by Mom and daughter in which the daughter is the guarantee and she pays the entire loan amount along with interest. Can the daughter claim the income from the let out property and claim the entire interest amount as deduction u/s 24 (b) under new tax regime or old tax regime
