How to Claim Deductions and Exemptions in Your ITR

How to Claim Deductions and Exemptions in Your ITR

Filing your Income Tax Return (ITR) is not just a mandatory compliance task; it’s an opportunity to maximize your savings by claiming deductions and exemptions. But how to claim these deductions? This is a common question most individuals ask. Well, the most important thing you need to do to claim these deductions and exemptions is “File your ITR.”

However, understanding eligible deductions and filing an ITR can be intimidating. This is where Tax2win steps in, offering you a seamless, hassle-free experience to ensure you don’t miss out on any tax benefits. Here’s a detailed guide on how to claim deductions and exemptions in your ITR and how Tax2win can simplify this process for you.

How to Claim Deductions and Exemptions in Your ITR?

  • Select the Correct ITR Form: One of the main requirements for claiming deductions and exemptions is filing an ITR using the appropriate ITR form. However, with so many types of ITR forms, it can be confusing to choose the appropriate one. Tax2win’s AI-integrated e-filing portal selects the most appropriate ITR for you based on your income details. 
  • File Your ITR: In order to claim the income tax deductions and exemptions, you must file an income tax return. While filing your ITR, you can claim all your eligible deductions and exemptions. Don’t know which deductions and exemptions you can claim? File ITR with Tax2win’s Tax Experts!
  • File Before the ITR Due Date: If you want to claim all the eligible deductions and exemptions, you must file your ITR before the due date. If you fail to do so, you might miss out on claiming certain deductions like 10-A, 10-B, 80-IA, 80-IB, and 80-IE which are disallowed on filing ITR after the due date. 
  • Accurate Filing: It is also important to make sure your ITR is accurate so that you don’t miss out on claiming any potential deductions and exemptions. Any discrepancy in the ITR might render it invalid, and you might not be able to claim the benefit of applicable deductions.

Deductions and Exemptions Under the Old and the New Regime

While the old tax regime provides several deductions and exemptions to reduce taxable income like Section 80C to 80U, HRA LTA, EPF, and NPS, the new regime offers limited exemptions and deductions. 

Whether you are opting for the old regime or the new regime, it is important to file your ITR before the due date to avail of the tax deductions and exemptions. 

And, if you want to opt for the old tax regime and you have business income, you need to file Form 10IEA before filing your ITR to switch regimes. This means the last date to file both Form 10IEA and ITR is 31 July 2024. 

Note: The new tax regime is now the default tax regime. This means any individual who wants to choose the old regime has to specifically opt for it while filing the ITR or by filing Form 10IEA (in case of business income).
