Will there be any EXE utility to file return this FY?

ITR Filing 767 views 9 replies

Hello,

I am confused about the download section on Incometax filling portal.

I see there's a Microsoft excel utility available for download for ITR1. I suppose 2 years ago excel was discontinued and they provided a separate EXE file to be installed offline on Windows system. I used that earlier.

Is such an EXE utility awaited or Excel is the way to go from this year?

The Excel utility is still awaited.

May be available in about fortnight time.

Wait for another 10 days.

I am still confused. Excel utility has been available for quite some time for AY23-24, but there's no Windows EXE (executable file that used to get installed as an app on Windows) offline download yet available. 

Is EXE utility been discontinued?

 

The offline excel utility to file ITR 1 to 4 have been released now.

The JAVA based common utility which was common earlier may not be available this year.

Online version of filing ITR 1,2 & 4 are released now, while that for ITR 3 is awaited.

You can file ITR 1 online, which is error free now.

Actually initially I liked Excel in past but in 2020 or 21 or so when they introduced Windows application, I found it much better and foolproof that Excel utility.

Yes, Same is still awaited...

The common Java utility to file ITR 1 to 4 has been released today.

Yes, thank you for the info. It took almost two and half months since March end for the IT dept to release this utility.

I hope it's bug free!

Yes, ITR 1 is working fine, but AIS is still under constant upgradation.. So, wait for its finalization.
