Income Tax Slabs

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

The discussion clarifies that while income up to Rs. 5 lakh may be exempt from tax due to rebates, filing an Income Tax Return (ITR) is still required if your income exceeds the basic exemption limit (typically Rs. 2.5 lakh). Filing an ITR is essential to claim deductions, rebates, and carry forward any losses for future tax periods.

01 February 2020 Dear Sir,
In the Budget speech it has been told that Personal Income Tax upto Rs. 5 Lac is exempt from Income Tax. So does it mean that Income upto Rs. 5 Lac is not required to file IT Return from A.Y. 2021 - 22

Thanks,
Abhishek.

26 May 2020 If your income exceeds the Basic Exemption Limit you need to file ITR showing deductions and availing rebates as applicable to you.

If no ITR is filled then no deduction or rebates or losses can be carried forward. You must need to file ITR to claim deductions and rebates.
