Rounding off income and tax, ITR-1, paper filing, Sec 288A/B

Tax queries 2189 views 8 replies

While the ITR-1 Java/Excel utility does all these automatically, how to achieve the same in paper filing with correct rounded figures for income and total tax fields?

Scenario: Senior Citizen, ITR-1 (paper filing mode), AY 17-18

Calculations

PART B – GROSS TOTAL INCOME
B1 - Income From Salary /Pension     = 2,88,000
B2 - Income from One house property = 0
B3 - Income from Other Sources         = 2,78,945
B4 - Gross Total Income (B1+B2+B3)  = 2,88,000 + 2,78,945 = 5,66,945

PART C – DEDUCTIONS AND TAXABLE TOTAL INCOME
80C   = 1,50,000
80TTA =  10,000
C1 - Total deductions = 1,60,000
C2 - Taxable Total Income (B4-C1) = 4,06,945 ==> 4,06,950 ??? (Sec 288A ?)
Senior Citizen ==> 4,06,950 - 3,00,000 (exempt income) = 1,06,950

PART D – COMPUTATION OF TAX PAYABLE
D1 - Tax payable on total income = 10,695
D2 - Rebate u/s 87A = 5,000
D3 - Tax after Rebate = 10,695 - 5,000 = 5,695
D4 - Cess on D3 = 170.85 = 171 ??? (Cess should be rounded or not?)
D5 - Total Tax and Cess = 5,695 + 171 = 5,866 or 5,870 ??? (Sec 288B ?)
D6 - Relief u/s 89(1) = 0
D7 - Interest u/s 234A = 0
D8 - Interest u/s 234B = 0
D9 - Interest u/s 234C = 0
D10 - Total Tax and Interest (D5+D7+D8+D9–D6) = 5,866 or 5,870 ??? (Sec 288B ?)
D11 - Total Taxes Paid = 5,866 or 5,870 ??? (Sec 288B)
D12 - Amount payable (D10 –D11) (if D10 > D11) = 0
D13 - Refund (D11 – D10) (if D11 > D10) = 0

Can anyone help me out with the rounding procedure in C2, D4, D5, D10 and D11 marked in red/yellow? What needs to be the correct figures?

Check image/sceernshot below, ... Is this correct? :

C2......4,06,950................                D4......  171

D5......5870                                     D10 /D11 ....5870

You always come to my rescue, Dhirajlal ji... THANK YOU!

One last issue:

In Challan 280 form (online/offline), there is a breakup for Tax, Cess, Interest etc. So when in ITR-1,

D12 - Amount payable (D10 –D11) (if D10 > D11) = 5870

Will the following inputs in Challan 280 be correct? :

TAX =  5699
CESS =  171
TOTAL TAX =  5870

 

 

 

If the above breakup is correct, it will reflect like this in 26AS:

PART C – Details of Tax Paid (other than TDS or TCS)
Sr. No. Major Head Minor Head Tax Surcharge Education Cess Others Total Tax BSR Code Date of Deposit Challan Serial Number
1 0021 300 5699.00 0.00 171.00 0.00 5870.00 XXXXX 24-Jun-2017 XYXYYX

 

And after that, say, the return is filed,... then would there be any mismatch in data, as in Tax in ITR-1 vs. Tax in 26AS mismatch? But Total Tax will always match!

In such cases, break up is not suggested (in challan). Just give single figure of tax as 5870. Let all other figures be "0" Total will be 5870. & pay.

Department will credit that single figure, and tally the total tax paid with total tax liability as calculated in ITR. And No mismatch.......

Good luck.

Here I seem to have committed a mistake, I had split the total tax into 2 components, tax (97%) and cess (3%) while filling up the 280 challan.

But the total tax matches 100%. Will there be any consequence? I guess only time will tell ! crying

Should I opt for challan correction?

Now, don't do anything.

The same will be accepted.......................

& surely no demand will be raised........

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

PHEW!

What a relief! I was going crazy!
