ITR-4 for two properties.

Dear Sir,

I recently discovered that one of our clients possesses both a let-out property and a self-occupied residential property. The client is currently paying interest on the self-occupied property. Unfortunately, my staff overlooked this matter and incorrectly claimed the deduction under the let-out property in the tax filing. Upon closer examination, I realized that as per ITR-4 guidelines, only one house property detail is allowed.

Additionally, the client generates Business Income but does not maintain regular books of accounts. Furthermore, they also receive rental income from the let-out property. This situation raises concerns about how to accurately file the Income Tax Return (ITR).

I kindly seek your assistance in resolving this matter and determining the appropriate approach for filing the ITR.

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a complex tax filing scenario where a client has a let-out property, a self-occupied property with interest payments, and business income without regular books of accounts. The initial filing incorrectly claimed deductions. The advice clarifies that ITR-4 has limitations for multiple properties and suggests filing a revised ITR-3 for the current year, declaring business income under presumptive assessment. It also touches upon correcting past errors via an updated return with penalties if applicable.

File revised ITR 3. declare business income under presumptive assessment.

Sir, the return for current year is due for filing. The error occured in previous year filings.

 

You cannot revise preceding year ITR now. If there is any additional tax liability you can file updated return with penalty.

For current year ITR take these precautions beforehand.

Thank you sir. 

You are welcome.
