Common Mistakes While Filing ITR Online

Introduction

Filing your Income Tax Return (ITR) online has become easier and more accessible than ever. However, many individuals and small business owners still make avoidable mistakes that can lead to notices, delayed refunds, or unnecessary stress. In this post, we’ll highlight common errors and how to avoid them—with the help of expert support from Online Dakhla.

Mistake 1: Choosing the Wrong ITR Form

Many taxpayers file using the incorrect ITR form. This can lead to rejection or processing delays. For example:

  • ITR-1 is only for salaried individuals with income under ₹50 lakh.

  • Business owners or freelancers should file ITR-3 or ITR-4.

Mistake 2: Not Reporting All Sources of Income

Whether it’s freelance earnings, bank interest, or rental income—everything must be declared. Non-disclosure may lead to penalties or scrutiny by the Income Tax Department.

Mistake 3: Ignoring TDS Details in Form 26AS

Always cross-verify your Form 26AS to ensure that all TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) is correctly credited to your PAN. Mismatches can delay refunds.

Mistake 4: Incorrect Bank Details

Wrong account numbers or IFSC codes can result in refund failures. Double-check your bank details before submitting the ITR.

Mistake 5: Forgetting to E-Verify the Return

Filing the return isn’t enough—you must e-verify it via Aadhaar OTP, bank account, or other approved methods. Without e-verification, your return is considered invalid.
