New Information required in ITR Form of AY 2026-27 (FY 2025-26)
As you prepare your Income Tax Return (ITR) for Assessment Year 2026-27, it’s essential to be aware of the new requirements in the ITR-4 form.
New Mandatory Reporting
This year, the reporting of “Balance with Banks” has become mandatory in ITR-4. This is a significant change from previous years where only specific components such as Sundry Creditors, Inventories, Sundry Debtors, and Cash-in-hand were required to be reported.
Why This Matters
Ensuring compliance with the new reporting requirements is crucial to avoid any penalties or issues with tax authorities. Make sure to include your bank balances accurately to streamline the filing process for AY 2026-27.
