 A new field has been provided in new ITR Forms under Schedule VI-A

deductions to claim home loan interest under Section 80EE (Section 80EE allows deduction on home loan interest for first time home buyers. This

deduction is over and above the Rs 2 lakhs limit covered under Section 24(b)).

 The tax computation and tax deduction portions have been reduced in the new forms. Hence, one needs to carefully find the tax deduction sections as only Section 80C, 80D, 80G & 80TTA have been specified and the rest need to be mentioned in the “others” box.

 Mandatory disclosures introduced last year, namely foreign trips and dormant bank accounts, have been removed.

 Last year the income tax department had introduced new section to declare the values of assets and liabilities of individuals with income of more than Rs 50 lakhs. This year the ITR form asks for more detailed information like

address of immovable property.

Changes in Income Tax Return Forms AY 2017-18 (Contd.)

 As per the presumptive taxation scheme u/s 44AD, 8% of gross turnover is considered as income. Budget 2017 made further

classification in the same. Now 6% of gross turnover is considered as income if the payment is accepted in digital form including Cheque, Wallets, etc. The ITR 4 has made separate columns to list Digital vs Cash receipts.

 Budget 2016 had introduced presumptive taxation scheme for

professionals such as doctors, Chartered accountants, lawyers, etc

who can declare minimum 50% of gross receipts as income. ITR 4 has introduced new fields accordingly.
