Tax on app income as a side project

Tax queries 357 views 3 replies

Hi, I am working in an organisation with an annual salary of 25+ LPA. For a side income, I started app development on Play Store and Apple Store. I am earning around Rs 7-8k per month from ad revenue and Rs 2-3 k per month from in app purchase which is done by users from India as well as outside. 

 

My question is how do I pay tax on this app income? Should I combine it with my salary while filling ITR. Also, do I need to pay GST on this. As this is a side project, I do not have any GST no.

Based on the quantum of the transaction as stated in query, GST would not be applicable.

You cannot add the income under Salary head; but it may be declare under head 'Income From Other Sources'

Thank you for the answer sir. I also want to know when is the GST generally applicable?

Depends upon your terms with app stores, but mostly they ask for your business account with GSTIN.
