Our Income Tax E Filing Services

At SetupFiling.in, we offer a comprehensive range of income tax e filing and tax compliance services tailored to meet the needs of every type of taxpayer in India. Additionally, Our Services are available pan-India, making it easy for taxpayers in metros as well as tier-2 and tier-3 cities to access professional tax assistance online without stepping out of their homes.

ITR Filing for Individuals (Salaried & Non-Salaried)

Filing an Income Tax Return as an individual — whether salaried, self-employed, or a freelancer — requires selecting the correct ITR form and reporting income under the appropriate heads. SetupFiling.in’s experts assess your income sources, compute taxable income, apply eligible deductions under Sections 80C, 80D, 80G, and other provisions, and file your return accurately before the due date. Consequently, you avoid late filing fees under Section 234F and get maximum refunds wherever applicable.

Moreover, for individuals with income from salary, house property, capital gains, or other sources, our team ensures that every detail is captured correctly. We handle ITR-1, ITR-2, ITR-3, and ITR-4 forms depending on your income profile. File your Income Tax Return today →

ITR-2 Filing for Capital Gains & Multiple Income Sources

ITR-2 is required for individuals and HUFs who have income from salary or pension, house property, capital gains (short-term or long-term), and other sources — but do not have income from business or profession. This form is more complex than ITR-1 and requires accurate computation of capital gains from equity, mutual funds, or property sales. SetupFiling.in’s tax experts handle ITR-2 filing with precision, ensuring correct tax calculation on capital gains and proper disclosure of all income heads.

For instance, if you have sold shares or mutual fund units during the financial year, Capital Gains Tax applies and must be reported in ITR-2. Our team computes both LTCG and STCG accurately and helps you claim applicable exemptions. ITR-2 Filing Service →

E Filing Income Tax Return Online

The process of E Filing Income Tax Return online involves logging into the Income Tax portal, selecting the correct ITR form, pre-filling income details, computing tax liability, paying any tax due, and submitting the return electronically. Subsequently, the return is verified using Aadhaar OTP, net banking, or by sending a signed ITR-V to CPC Bengaluru.

SetupFiling.in manages this entire process on your behalf. We use your Form 16, Form 26AS, AIS, and TIS to prepare an accurate return. As a result, there are no discrepancies, no notices, and no stress. E File Income Tax Return →

Income Tax Refund Claim

Many taxpayers have excess TDS deducted by their employer or bank and are entitled to a refund. However, claiming an income tax refund requires filing your ITR correctly and on time. SetupFiling.in helps you claim every rupee of your rightful refund by filing an accurate income tax return and following up on refund status. We ensure that your bank account details are validated on the portal for seamless refund credit.

Likewise, for taxpayers who have advance tax paid in excess or TDS deducted on interest income, our team computes the exact refund amount and ensures it is claimed. Claim Your Income Tax Refund →

Back Year Income Tax Return Filing

Have you missed filing your income tax return for previous financial years? You can still file belated or updated returns under Section 139(8A) by paying the applicable tax and interest. SetupFiling.in specialises in back year income tax return filing, helping taxpayers regularise their tax compliance history, avoid prosecution, and claim pending refunds.

Therefore, if you have unfiled returns from AY 2022-23, AY 2023-24, or AY 2024-25, our experts will guide you through the updated return filing process and ensure complete compliance. Back Year ITR Filing →

Income Tax Return Filing for Sole Proprietorship

Sole proprietors file their business income as part of their personal income tax return, typically using ITR-3 or ITR-4. This requires maintaining proper books of accounts, computing business profit or loss, applying presumptive taxation under Section 44AD or 44ADA where applicable, and reporting GST turnover correctly. SetupFiling.in helps sole proprietors stay fully compliant with income tax laws.

Moreover, sole proprietors who also have GST Registration need to ensure that their GST turnover matches the income declared in ITR. Our experts handle both compliances seamlessly. Sole Proprietorship ITR Filing →

Income Tax Return Filing for NGOs

NGOs, trusts, and Section 8 companies registered under 12A and 80G must file their income tax return annually to maintain their tax exemption status. SetupFiling.in handles ITR-7 filing for NGOs, charitable trusts, and religious organisations, ensuring accurate disclosure of receipts, expenditures, and corpus funds. Non-compliance can result in cancellation of 12A and 80G registrations.

As a result, timely ITR filing is critical for NGOs that rely on donations and foreign funding. We also assist with 12A Registration, 80G Registration, and NGO Darpan Registration. NGO ITR Filing →

Income Tax Audit Services

Taxpayers whose business turnover exceeds ₹1 crore (or ₹10 crore in certain cases) or professional receipts exceed ₹50 lakh are required to get their accounts audited under Section 44AB before filing their ITR. SetupFiling.in provides income tax audit services through qualified chartered accountants who conduct the audit, prepare the audit report in Form 3CA/3CB and 3CD, and upload it on the Income Tax portal.

Consequently, your ITR can only be filed after the tax audit is completed and the audit report is uploaded. Our team ensures both tasks are completed well before the extended due date for audit cases. Income Tax Audit Service →

Advance Tax Payment Assistance

Taxpayers with tax liability exceeding ₹10,000 in a financial year are required to pay advance tax in four instalments — by June 15, September 15, December 15, and March 15. Failure to pay advance tax results in interest under Sections 234B and 234C. SetupFiling.in helps you compute your estimated tax liability, calculate advance tax instalments, and make timely payments.

For instance, business owners, freelancers, and investors with capital gains must pay advance tax to avoid interest charges. Our team tracks your income throughout the year and advises you on advance tax payments. Advance Tax Payment →

TDS on Sale of Property (Form 26QB & Form 16B)

When purchasing immovable property worth ₹50 lakh or more, the buyer must deduct TDS at 1% of the sale consideration and deposit it using Form 26QB. The buyer must also issue Form 16B (TDS certificate) to the seller. SetupFiling.in handles Form 26QB filing and Form 16B generation on behalf of both buyers and sellers, ensuring compliance with TDS provisions on property transactions.

Similarly, sellers who have had TDS deducted can claim credit of the same in their income tax return. TDS on Property Filing →

Income Tax E Filing AY 2026-27 – What You Need to Know

The Assessment Year 2026-27 (Financial Year 2025-26) income tax return filing season is now open. Taxpayers must file their returns before the due date — typically July 31 for individuals and businesses not subject to audit, and October 31 for audit cases. SetupFiling.in is fully updated with the latest ITR forms, tax slabs, and portal requirements for AY 2026-27 income tax e filing.

Furthermore, the Income Tax Department has introduced several changes for AY 2026-27, including updated new tax regime slabs, revised deduction limits, and new disclosure requirements. Under the new tax regime, the basic exemption limit has been increased to ₹3 lakh and standard deduction of ₹75,000 is now available to salaried taxpayers. Conversely, taxpayers opting for the old regime can continue to claim deductions under Sections 80C, 80D, HRA, and other provisions.

For AY 2026-27, taxpayers must reconcile their income with Form 26AS, AIS (Annual Information Statement), and TIS (Taxpayer Information Summary) before filing. Any mismatch between these and the ITR can trigger scrutiny notices from the Income Tax Department. Therefore, SetupFiling.in’s experts cross-verify all data sources before preparing and submitting your return. File ITR for AY 2026-27 →

 Every individual whose gross total income exceeds the basic exemption limit (₹2.5 lakh for below 60 years, ₹3 lakh under new regime) must file an ITR. Additionally, individuals who have deposited more than ₹1 crore in a current account, paid electricity bills exceeding ₹1 lakh, or incurred foreign travel expenses above ₹2 lakh must also file, even if income is below the exemption limit.
