Last Installment of Advance Tax

Under section 208 of the income tax act, every assessee whose estimated tax liability is Rs 10,000 or exceeds would furnish advance tax which is furnished in 4 installments. The last date for the first installments stands on 15 June and the second on the 15th September, the third on 15th December, and the fourth on 15th March in each fiscal year.

Investments in Tax Saving Funds

To finish the tax-saving objective only one month is left for an earning person. Thus one is required to make sure that is has deposited the tax-saving funds such as Public Provident Fund (PPF), National Pension System or NPS, and others. But it is essential to remember that when an earning person is not able to save then some of its expenditure beneath the heads like tuition fee of the child, principal repayment on the home loan, and others gives the tax advantage to an income taxpayer.

AIS is available on the income tax e-filing portal and furnished a complete summary of several fiscal transactions done by the assessees, along with the information of taxes withheld or paid in the fiscal year, prescribed financial transactions, tax demand or refund, and the tax proceedings. A review of the AIS would assist the assessee by ensuring that all the financial transactions that come under the taxable income are duly understood and considered to compute the taxes.

The non-residents are to be taxed on the income earned via sources in India or income obtained in India.

Taxable income is normally divided into the mentioned 5 heads of the income such as the income from salary; income from house property (rental income); income from capital gains; income from business or profession; income from other sources (for example, interest, dividend, or any other income which does not fall under above heads).
