Unorganised chit amount

931 views 4 replies

Hi All,

I am putting the chit for past 8 months and this is an unorganised chit . Net contribution is equal to total cumulative amount received.No profit  in chit.

I send each contribution thru NEFT for each individual participants.

 

When I took an auction,Instead of receiving the each chit  amount from all participants,Only three of participants send the full amount. They transferred internally before sending it to me as a single amount.As I said this is unorganised.

Do i need to show it in ITR, because this is unorganised I do have any information about the chit organisation and participate information.

Will the big amount (5 lakhs) will cause issue.

How do I tackle this.

Quick Summary
The user organized an unorganized chit fund for 8 months, receiving contributions via NEFT. When an auction occurred, only three participants sent the full amount, with others transferring funds internally before sending a single sum. The user is concerned about disclosing this unorganized chit fund and a large deposit (5 lakhs) in their ITR, as they lack formal organization details. The advice is that since there's no profit or commission, it shouldn't be an issue for income tax. However, it's recommended to disclose the transaction under 'Other Information' in the ITR, explaining the nature of the receipt as members' contributions and clarifying that all collections were passed through to reduce the risk of it being treated as unexplained income.

Hello,

As there is no margin/profit/ extra income you will be receiving from the chit, It will not make any issue for income tax return.

Ok, My concern is that deposit of 5 lakhs in single transaction will cause any issues.

 

No issue, until you receive the full amount through online mode.

Disclose as “Other Information” in ITR

In ITR-1/ITR-2/ITR-3:

  • There is a section for additional information / explanations on large transactions.

  • Explain:

    • You acted as chit organiser (unorganised).

    • No profit / no commission.

    • Amounts received are members’ contributions.

    • All collections were passed through.

This reduces the risk of the income being treated as unexplained receipts.
