FAQ

Common questions

General information only. Please consult before acting.

What changed with the Income-tax Act, 2025?

The Income-tax Act, 2025 replaced the Income-tax Act, 1961 from 1 April 2026. It uses a single "tax year" in place of the earlier "previous year" and "assessment year", and renumbers sections and forms. For example, Form 16 is now Form 130. Filings for periods before April 2026 continue under the earlier provisions.

Do I need to file an income tax return?

Generally, yes, if your total income is above the basic exemption limit. Filing can also be required in other cases, such as holding foreign assets, high-value transactions or claiming a TDS refund.

I have received an income tax or GST notice. What should I do?

Notices carry response deadlines and shouldn't be ignored. Share a copy of the notice with the relevant return and supporting documents so it can be reviewed and a response prepared.

When is GST registration required?

It is mandatory once aggregate turnover crosses the threshold (generally ₹40 lakh for goods and ₹20 lakh for services, lower in special category states). It is also required in certain cases regardless of turnover, such as inter-state supply of goods or selling through e-commerce operators.
