Who Should File ITR-4?

Why

The ITR-4 is designed specifically for simplicity and ease of compliance, offering a major time saving benefit. Instead of maintaining intricate accounting books, ledgers, and balance sheets which is mandatory for ITR-3 the ITR-4 uses a presumptive taxation scheme where you simply declare a fixed percentage of your total turnover (6%, 8%, or 50%, depending on the business type) as your net profit. This dramatically reduces paperwork, minimizes the need for an accountant, and eliminates the risk of audit for minor bookkeeping errors, streamlining the entire process on the official Income Tax e-Filing Portal.

  • Simplified income declaration
  • Lower compliance cost
