The last date for filing Income Tax Return (ITR) is near. Actually, the Income Tax Department has extended the last date for filing ITR to 15 September 2025, which was earlier 31 July 2025. This is the last date for all those people who do not need to get their accounts audited, such as people receiving salary and pension. However, there has been no change in the deadline for filing ITR for those taxpayers who have to get their accounts audited.
The date of 15th September is near, but still lakhs of taxpayers are filing ITR. Today in this news we will tell you about those 5 documents which are required while filing ITR. With their help, you can file your ITR as soon as possible without any mistake.
Form 16
Form 16 is a very important document for salaried taxpayers. Actually, companies already deduct TDS on salary. Due to this, it is necessary to provide Form-16 for proof of TDS deducted during the financial year. With this certificate, taxpayers can also cross-check the salary statement, which is already filled in the online ITR form on the e-filing portal.
Capital gains document
If you have sold any shares or mutual funds and you have made any kind of capital gain, then it is necessary to give information about it in ITR. To avoid any problem in this, it is better to get the capital gain statement from your stock broker. This will give you information about where you have invested for long term as well as short term.
Annual Information Statement
You will get this statement from the website of the tax department. This makes the process of filing ITR quite easy. This statement gives information about interest on savings account, dividend, purchase and sale of properties.
Bank statement
Taxpayers should keep the certificate of interest received from banks and post offices with them. Along with this, the bank statement of that financial year should also be taken. With this, you can verify the information given in the Annual Information Statement. Apart from this, you can also get information about the income which is not in the AIS.
