Filing an ITR for the first time might confuse some people. However, the process has become simpler and easier due to the online medium.

If you are filing an ITR for the first time, then read this article to know how to file an ITR.

ITR is an Annual Statement that notifies the tax authorities about the income you’ve earned. This income consists of salary, earnings made from capital gains, income from a business, house rent, or any other sources.

The Process of Filing ITR

If you’re filing income tax returns for the first time, the first step is to register yourself on the portal. Furthermore, it is very crucial to file an ITR before the ITR filing last date. Generally, the last date for filing an ITR every year is July 31. Follow the below process to register yourself on the portal-

  • Visit the e-filing website https://www.incometax.gov.in/iec/foportal

  • Click on ‘Register’

  • After that, click on ‘Taxpayer’

  • Enter your PAN details and click on ‘Validate’. Then, click on ‘Continue’

  • Provide your details like name, address, gender, etc.

  • After that, provide your e-mail ID and registered mobile number

  • After filling the form, click on ‘Continue’

  • Once you verify the details, you’ll be sent an OTP to your registered e-mail ID and number

  • Enter the OTP

  • After the OTP is verified, you’ll be redirected to a new window that will ask you to verify the details provided by you

  • In case of any errors in the details, you can edit them further. Post that, to validate the changes another OTP will be sent

  • Finally, you’ll have to set up a password and secure login message

  • Click on ‘Register’. You’ll receive an acknowledgement message on the success of the registration process.

Once you have registered yourself, you can file an ITR. Make sure you calculate your taxable income after deductions and choose an ITR form based on the category you fall under.

Here are the steps for income tax e-filing:

  • After that, you’ll be redirected to a new page for filing the ITR. You need to check the details on this page. Ensure the details are correct. Once you confirm the summary of your ITR, validate it

  • Finally, you’ll have to verify your Income Tax returns. After that, send a copy to the Income Tax Department.
