I came to know from reliable source if a salaried person earning from salary including other than salary below Rs. 5 lacs. In that cases Submission of I tax Return is not necessary. From – 16 from the employer is equivalent to I.Tax Return.
I want to know that:-
Mr. X is a salaried Person. His Gross total income Rs. 276059/-For the F.Y. 2011’12 ( A.Y. 2012’13) including arrears salary.
After deduction ( P.Tax, U/S 80 as such GPF, GSLI, PPF, H.B.Loan repayment, UTI (MF), Medical insurance etc.) total income Rs.195920/-
As per rules his Total Tax Rs. (1592+48) = Rs. 1640/-, Relief-U/S 89 Rs. 497/- So his total payable tax Rs.1143/- It has been deducted from his salary bill for the month of Feb’2012. and credit to the Central Govt. account. All ready received Form – 16 From D.D.O. and kept it safe place.
I think:-
Those cases Submission of I Tax Return to the concern I.T.O is not required. Is not it my forum friends?? Highlight it please. With heart full regards.April 21, 2012 at 6:49 pm #72138unknownParticipantyes you are right my friend. this year also in a press release it has been announced. this exemption is applicable to those class of taxpayers who have:-
1. Reported their PAN No. to their Employer.
2. Reported their Interest Income to their employer and the employer has adequately deducted the Tax thereon
3. Received Form 16 from their employer which clearly states the Total Income earned during the year, the PAN No., the TDS deducted and the deposited with the Central Govt.
4. Received Salary from not more than 1 Employer
5. Have no claim for Refund of Income Tax for the TDS deductedApril 22, 2012 at 1:22 am #72139unknownParticipantIf total income is 1,95,920(say) including interest (savings, fixed deposit,NSC )12220 (say) i;e above 10000 then submission of IT Return required or not? To the best of my knowledge Submission of IT Return is necessary if income from other sources(such as mentioned above) exceeds 10000 though total income is below the limit 5 lac.
April 22, 2012 at 2:26 am #72140unknownParticipantHi friends. Let me add some more. We all know that as per notification issued on 23rd June 2011, the follwing salaried Categeory of Employees are exempted for Filing Income Tax Returns.
Salaried Employee whose Total Income for the Financial Year is less than Rs. 5 Lakhs from the salaried Income & their disclosed Interest Income form Savings Bank Interest (Savings Bank Interest up to Rs. 10,000) only, if the Employer has issued Valid Form 16 (Based on Valid PAN) after TDS deduction from the said incomes by employer.
But please note the followings:
1. If an Employee has Housing Loan or Interest Income from FIXED DEPOSITS (FD’s) or Post Office Interest or Interest Income from NSC or KVP (Even If it is Nominal Amount), they have to file their Tax Returns.
2. If a Salaried Employee has more than One Form 16 or have additional Tax Liability or Refund (Excess Tax Paid or TDS deducted), such Salaried class have to file their Income Tax Returns.
3. An Employee who has not received Form 16 from Employer (Where Tax Returns are filed based on the pay slips as there is a TDS deduction by the Employer), Tax Returns need to be filed.
It has been exempted only for specified category of the population for furnishing their return of Income and the TDS is withheld will not be refunded unless they have a specific claim (For non-furnishing of Tax Proofs to the Employer) in their Return of Income filed.April 22, 2012 at 2:29 am #72141unknownParticipantFriend,
i think you are absolutely right. If bank interest earn above Rs. 10000/-during the financial year then I Tax Return submission is mandatory to the concern I.T.O. Thanks.April 22, 2012 at 2:44 am #72142unknownParticipantFriend somenath,
I have a house building loan. Monthly Installment repayment Rs. 40000/-( principal and interest)during the F.Y. and deduct this amount as per rules.That case RETURN SUBMISSION REQUIRE OR NOT?April 22, 2012 at 4:54 am #72143unknownParticipantAs per the existing procedure, an employer can take into account the interest paid on a housing loan by the employee while working out the employee’s TDS liability. As a result, a salaried employee’s total income may reduce to less than Rs.5,00,000 as loss from the head ‘income from house property’ would be set off against salary income. Such a taxpayer is not exempted from filing his return of income as the notification exempts only cases where the total income is under the head ‘salary’ and interest from the savings bank account. In a nutshell, if the taxpayer has any loss under the head ‘income from house property’, will not be eligible for exemption from filing a return on income tax.
April 24, 2012 at 4:14 am #72161unknownParticipantThe concerned notification is produced below.

As for Example :- My gross income from salary Rs.250000/- Less ( p.tax+ GPF + H.B. Loan repayment + LIC)= 1800+12000+30000+16200 = 60000/- Now total income Rs.190000/-

No such clear direction is found in this regard but I think it will be safe for you to submit the return. However there is no bar to submit the same and its easy now a days through E-filing.
For more information you may visit this link where it is clearly stated that the return submission is required for the persons having exemption of House Loan Interest.
