Income Tax Return Filing

Overview

The right form, filed correctly, on time

Firms and LLPs file ITR-5; companies (other than those claiming exemption under Section 8) file ITR-6. Both require accurate financial statements, correct schedule-by-schedule reporting, and — above the turnover threshold — a completed tax audit under Section 44AB before the return itself can be filed.

The correct form, matched to your entity

ITR-5 for firms and LLPs, ITR-6 for companies — with every schedule (balance sheet, P&L, depreciation, MAT/AMT where applicable) filled out to match your entity type.

Tax audit coordinated, not chased separately

Where turnover crosses the Section 44AB threshold, we coordinate the audit report (Form 3CA/3CB and 3CD) so your return is filed within the audit deadline, not the earlier non-audit one.

Carried-forward losses protected

Filed on time, so business losses and unabsorbed depreciation stay available to set off in future years instead of lapsing.

Questions

Frequently asked

01Should my firm file ITR-5 or ITR-6?

ITR-5 is for partnership firms, LLPs, AOPs and BOIs. ITR-6 is for companies other than those claiming exemption under Section 8 of the Companies Act. We confirm which applies based on how your business is registered.

02When does my business need a tax audit before filing?

Tax audit under Section 44AB applies once turnover exceeds ₹1 crore (₹10 crore if cash transactions are under 5%) for businesses, or gross receipts exceed ₹75 lakh for professionals (₹50 lakh otherwise) — with different thresholds if presumptive taxation isn't opted for. We check this against your actual numbers before filing.

03What's the due date for filing our return?

31st July for businesses not requiring audit, and 31st October for those requiring a tax audit under Section 44AB (subject to government extensions each year). Filing after the deadline forfeits the right to carry forward most losses.

04Can we revise the return after filing?

Yes, a revised return can be filed under Section 139(5), generally up to three months before the end of the relevant assessment year or before assessment, whichever is earlier — provided the original return was filed on time.

05Why book a consultation instead of doing this myself?

Getting the audit threshold wrong, missing a schedule that MAT or carried-forward losses depend on, or filing after the audit deadline instead of the earlier one can cost real money in disallowed losses and penalties. This is one filing where entity-specific detail matters more than the software you use.
