ITR (Income Tax Return) is the form you file with the Income Tax Department to report your income, claim deductions and tax credits, and either pay more tax or claim a refund. Different ITR forms exist for different taxpayer profiles: ITR-1 for simple salaried income, ITR-2 for capital gains, ITR-3 for business/profession income, ITR-4 for presumptive income. The due date for most individuals is 31 July of the assessment year.
