12 September 2025 Hi All,

I have an issue where the I have to file ITR of the person who has died on 11th September 2025. Now my question is that since the person was alive for the Financial year 2024-25, so should the itr be filed as original person or should the same be filed as by the legal representative.

Regards,
Manik

12 September 2025 Though he was alive in FY 2024-25, but not available to file ITR now, so legally only legal heir can file his relevant ITR...

16 September 2025 Good Luck.
