Do i have to file ITR?

@Kaushal_Soni @Divya_Singhvi @Laxmi_Navlani @AkashJhaveri can you?

Hi @Latesh_Bayad

A. Yes you need to file ITR since the total income is more than the Basic Exemption limit i.e 2,50,000 INR.
B. As per the IT Act since your income is less than the Basic Exemption limit i.e 2,50,000 INR it is not mandatory to file ITR. However, irrespective of the income it is mandatory to file ITR for certain income situations. You can refer to the below article:

Yes, you can file the return on your own if you don’t want to opt for any assisted plan using Quicko DIY platform.

Hope this helps :slightly_smiling_face:

  1. So if my income is below 2.5L, I would not need to file itr even if that income includes stcg? Or would I.

  2. And the DIY income tax for business and profession would also include the capital gains option?

  3. I heard there’s standard deduction for salaried employees. Is there anything for businesses as well?

And here

What does it mean by “Regular business profit” under business income?

Hi @Latesh_Bayad

It refers to Income (Profit) from Busines & Professions.

My tax slab is below 2.5 lac. Now, will I have to pay 15% STCG tax or not?

Hi @royanish388, if the total income is below the basic exemption limit of INR 2.5 lakh, then there won’t be any tax liability. However, you should file your ITR and report your STCG.

Hi @HIREiN, since NSE falls under SEBI - the partnership applies to all the trades done on NSE.

I have not filed an ITR before and in FY21-22 I made 4 F&O trades and booked a loss of 15000. Is it compulsory for me to file ITR or I can avoid. I have no other income. Can I avoid filing and if I do will there be any penalty?

Hey Atul
It is always a good practice to file your ITR and report all your financial transactions to avoid notice from the Income Tax Department. Especially after the SEBI and CBDT’s data partnership If your total income is below the basic exemption limit, you won’t have any tax liability.
