No change in tax forms, says I-T dept; 1.38 cr returns filed already
The Central Board of Direct Taxes on Tuesday clarified that no changes have been made in any of the income-tax return forms since April 1, 2019, the first day of the assessment year 2019-20. Even though the utility is being updated regularly to provide ease to taxpayers, the returns filed by using the previous version of utility will continue to be valid, CBDT said. For example, more than 85 lakh taxpayers have filed returns in ITR-1 till date by using the said utility which has also undergone update later. “Therefore, the impression that the taxpayers are not able to file return due to changes in ITR form is also not correct as more than 1.38 crore taxpayers have already filed their returns by using the utility released till date,” it said. Even though the utility is being updated regularly to provide ease to taxpayers, the returns filed by using the previous version of utility will continue to be valid, it said.
