Correct Info on IT returns
Kashmir Times. Dated: 9/15/2017 11:51:01 PM
Dear Editor,
It would be more convenient if all the information with income tax department about an assessee collected from various sources including AIR etc. -linked with PAN- is also made available in Form 26AS and automatically uploaded in the income tax “Pre-filled” forms at the time of e-filing, yes with the option to edit it, if assessee wish so-finds it wrong.
And it would be much better if full of previous year I T return filed is being made available in - with those changes which are not relevant in the current assessment year is also made available in ‘Pre-filled’ form with of course editing facility to update and correct it. This facility would help the assessee to fill correct figures too as comparison with last year’s figures with editing would help in re-checking and confirmation for changes required this year.
Such a facility would reduce burden of I T department to issue even scrutiny notices as an assessees would be more vigilant and fill correct information in their I T Returns.
If this suggestion is implemented with immediate effect, it would help for those who have not yet filed their income tax returns including those assesses whose last date of filing income tax return is October 2017.
