1. ITR to be filed: ITR shall be filed in form – ITR 3, “For individuals and HUFs having income from profits and gains of business or profession”. Further, please note that for AY 2020-21, only ITR-1, ITR-2, and ITR-4 are notified by Income Tax department and else forms will be notified soon then you can file your Income Tax Returns accordingly.
