*I have not included the Transport Allowance for 2010-11of Rs. 5250/- which is exempted.
I would like to know whether I have to file Income Tax Return, since I hold PAN Card. For men the IT exemption is Rs. 1,60,000/- for 2010-11.
I have not remitted any TDS/IT for 2010-11
I request the experts to clarify, if we hold a PAN card is it compulsory to file ITR every year even their net income after allowable deductions/savings is below the exempt limit.
