This year TDS is being deducted at a higher rate. It is effective from July 1, 2021. This rule is for those who have not filed income tax return. Those who have not filed ITR and whose TDS is deducted, their TDS will be deducted more than before. If a taxpayer’s TDS is deducted more than Rs 50,000 and he does not file income tax return, then his TDS will be deducted at a higher rate. This rule is for the last two ITR filings. According to the Income Tax section, TDS will be deducted at twice the percentage of tax that is deducted. If the taxpayer has not given the PAN information to the institution deducting TDS, then up to 20% can be deducted.

3- PAN linkage

Linking your PAN with Aadhaar number has been made mandatory. Earlier its last date was fixed as June 30, 2021 but later due to Corona epidemic, the period was extended till September 30. If you do not or do not link PAN and Aadhaar by this stipulated date, then PAN will be closed and then you will have to pay a fine, this work is very easy and can be done online sitting at home. PAN-Aadhaar gender has been made mandatory to avail the services of almost all financial institutions or banks.

4- Linked Insurance Plan

When investing in an insurance plan, some rules have been changed this financial year. These changes have been made in linked insurance plans or plans which are linked to the stock market. If you pay a premium of up to Rs 2.5 lakh or more in a linked insurance plan in a year, take financial benefits of that plan, then the money earned will be counted as capital gains and you will have to pay tax. It is just like investing in an equity mutual fund. However, insurance plans that are non-linked or not linked to the stock market will not attract any tax.

5-Senior Citizen ITR


Now senior citizens above the age of 75 years are exempted from filing income tax returns. But there is a condition in this. If senior citizens take pension from any one bank and get interest from that bank, then there will be no need to file ITR in that particular current year. Suppose a senior person has an account with SBI and they take benefit of interest along with pension, then they will not be obliged to file ITR. This rule is applicable from the financial year 2021. It was not like this before.
