- For your own income (your salary/business/professional income, etc.):
- You file your self ITR separately, under your own PAN, in the normal way.
- This is independent of the deceased’s return.
When you register yourself as a legal heir on the Income Tax portal, you are essentially authorized to file the deceased person’s ITR on their behalf. This is distinct from your own ITR.
