‘People earning up to Rs 5 lakh need not file IT return’
New Delhi, May 31 (PTI) As many as 85 lakh salaried tax payers with an annual income of up to Rs 5 lakh will not have to file income-tax return from now onwards, a finance ministry official said.
"No income-tax returns would be required for salaried persons earning up to Rs 5 lakh per annum. We would notify this in first week of June," outgoing Chairman of Central Board of Direct Taxes Sudhir Chandra told reporters here.
The scheme would be applicable from assessment year 2011-12 onwards.
This means that the salaried persons eligible under the scheme would not have to file returns for the financial year 2010-11 in 2011-12 (assessment year).
However, such tax payers would have to file return if they want to claim refunds, Chandra said.
