Upload your documents on WhatsApp and let our tax experts file your Income Tax Return for Assessment Year 2026-27 correctly, on time, and at the lowest tax liability you're entitled to.
Assessment Year 2026-27 relates to income earned between 1 April 2025 and 31 March 2026 (F.Y. 2025-26). Every individual, professional, freelancer, NRI, and business whose income crosses the basic exemption limit — or who wants to claim a TDS refund — needs to file an Income Tax Return for A.Y. 2026-27 under the Income Tax Act, 1961, since the return still relates to income earned before the new Income Tax Act, 2025 came into force. We handle the entire process online — document collection, tax regime comparison, computation, form selection, and e-filing — so you don't have to visit the tax office or the income tax portal yourself.
The due date to file your Income Tax Return for A.Y. 2026-27 depends on the ITR form applicable to you. Filing before the due date protects your right to carry forward losses and lets you choose between the old and new tax regime. Businesses that also need to pay quarterly instalments should check our advance tax payment guide.

For A.Y. 2026-27, the due date is 31 July 2026 for salaried individuals filing ITR-1 or ITR-2, 31 August 2026 for freelancers and businesses filing ITR-3 or ITR-4 without audit, and 31 October 2026 for taxpayers requiring a tax audit. A belated return can still be filed until 31 December 2026 with a late fee.
ITR-1 is for salaried individuals with income from salary, one or two house properties, and other sources up to ₹50 lakh. ITR-2 is for capital gains or multiple properties without business income. ITR-3 is for business or professional income, and ITR-4 is for presumptive taxation. Our team confirms the correct form based on your documents.
Missing the due date means you can still file a belated return until 31 December 2026, but you may pay a late fee of up to ₹5,000 under Section 234F, interest on unpaid tax, and you lose the option to carry forward certain losses to future years.
Yes. You can share your documents with us on WhatsApp at +91 98182 09246, and our team will handle computation, form selection, filing, and e-verification remotely from start to finish.
The new tax regime is the default for A.Y. 2026-27 and offers a standard deduction of ₹75,000 for salaried individuals along with a rebate that makes income up to ₹12.75 lakh effectively tax-free. The old regime may still work better if you claim large deductions such as HRA, 80C, or home loan interest. We compare both and recommend the option that lowers your tax outgo.
Yes. If you discover an error or missed deduction after filing, you can submit a revised return any time up to 31 March 2027, as long as the original or belated return was filed within the allowed timeline.
Filing is not mandatory below the basic exemption limit, but it is still recommended if TDS was deducted on your income and you want a refund, or if you need the return as income proof for a loan, visa, or credit card application.
