An Income Tax Return (ITR) is a document used by taxpayers to report details about their income earned and the corresponding tax liability to the income tax department. It serves as a formal declaration of an individual or entity’s financial information, ensuring transparency and compliance with tax regulations.

The ITR landscape includes seven different forms: ITR-1, ITR-2, ITR-3, ITR-4, ITR-5, ITR-6, and ITR-7. Each taxpayer is required to file their ITR on or before the specified due date. The choice of ITR form depends on factors such as the sources of income, the amount of income earned, and the taxpayer’s category, which can include individuals, HUFs (Hindu Undivided Families), companies, and more.

The ITR-1 Sahaj Form, as its name implies, serves as a simplified means for individual taxpayers to file their income tax returns. This form is specifically tailored for resident individuals in India whose total income falls below the Rs. 50 Lakhs threshold and originates from the following sources:

  • Income from Salary or Pension
  • Income from a Single House Property
  • Income from Other Sources

The ITR-1 Form simplifies the procedure for eligible individuals to disclose their income tax information, offering a convenient and effective approach to fulfilling their tax obligations.
