Money

Dear Mr. Mihir, I was working for a private company and retired on superannuation in November 2022. Thereafter, I was engaged by the company as a consultant to complete some pending project. Therefore during the financial year 2022-23, I have salary income from the company and also some amount the company paid to me for professional services for my consultant role after retirement. Which ITR form should I use, ITR-2 or ITR-3? I have income from salary and also from professional service. Regards

Ans: After retirement you were working on as profession on full time basis, thus, it will be chargeable under the head Income from Business and profession. If your profession is covered by list of profession mentioned in 44AA and gross receipt from profession is less than 50 lacs, you can opt for presumptive taxation and take 50% deduction. If presumptive taxation is opted, you can file ITR 4 else ITR 3 is applicable.

Money

If I put my royalty income under the head “Profits and Gains of Business or Profession” then which ITR form I am supposed to fill - ITR 3 or ITR 4?

Ans: ITR form will depend on the fact that Royalty is out of main business activity carried out by you OR Income from other sources. ITR 3 and 4 both are applicable for Income from Business and Profession (subject to other conditions).

Main difference is that ITR 4 is applicable if you are eligible and opting for presumptive taxation as per Sec 44AD/44ADA.

Tax, Mutual Fund Expert - Answered on Jul 27, 2023

Asked by Anonymous - Jul 20, 2023Hindi

Money

Sir how to choose the right ITR form? Who can use 1 and when to use 2? I am a salaried professional.

Ans: Hello,

Choosing the right ITR form depends on the nature of your income. As a salaried individual, you can use either ITR-1 or ITR-2.

ITR-1, also known as Sahaj, is for individuals who have income from salary, one house property, other sources (like interest), and whose total income does not exceed â‚¹50 lakh during the financial year.

On the other hand, ITR-2 is used when an individual or a Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) has income from any source except income from profits and gains of business or profession. So, if you have income from salary and also capital gains, for example, from equity shares or mutual funds, then you will be required to file an income tax return using the ITR-2 form.

Remember, the choice of ITR form primarily depends on your sources of income. If you are unsure, it's always a good idea to consult with a tax professional.

I hope this helps!

Can you please suggest on capital gains as per Indian taxation laws arising in the below two queries : 1) property purchased with joint ownership, me and my wife’s name in 2015 at a cost of 64,80,000, housing improvements done for the cost of 1000000 and brokerages of 200000 paid and sold the same property at 10000000 in Dec 2023? 2) 87% of the proceeds got from the deal i.e 8700000, have been reinvested to pay 25% amount in purchasing another joint ownership property in Dec 2023, 3) I have invested in another under construction property in Nov 2023 by taking housing loan, which is on me and my wife’s name worth 1.4 cr, here the primary applicant is me only while wife is just made a Co applicant in the builder buyer agreement and also on the housing loan . So what are the LTCG tax liabilities arising from the above 3 scenarios for FY 2023-2024 and FY 2024-2025. I intend to sale off the property acquired in (2) by Dec 2024 and use that proceeds to close the housing loan for the property acquired in (3), will this sale of property be inviting any tax liabilities if the complete proceeds received from the sale of the property in (2) would be utilised to close the housing loan taken in Nov 2023 for the property in (3) ? Since in FY 23-24, I would be claiming the LTCG from the sale proceeds of 1) invested in the purchase of property in 2), and I intend to sale off this property in Dec 2024, will the LTCG claim be forfeited on the property sale in (1), should I hold this property at least for further 1 year so that sale of this property in 2) will not invite STCG?

Ans: (A). Let's first talk about F/Y 2023-24 :
You jointly sold a Property during the year for Rs.76.80 lakhs (64.80+10.00+2.00), & sold the same for Rs.100.00 lakhs.
You have jointly also purchased Property No.3 (I suppose it is Residential only), for Rs.140.00 lakhs.
You should avail exemption u/s-54 & file your ITR accordingly. Please disclose all details about sale & purchase in your ITR.
02. Now coming to the F/Y 2024-25 :
You intend to Sell Property No.2, which was acquired in 2023-24. Any Gain on Sale of it would be Short Term capital Gains & taxed accordingly.
Alternatively, you may hold this sale of property no.2 (for 2 years from its purchase) & avoid STCG
You are free to utilize the sale proceeds in a way you like, including paying off your housing Loan.
Please note to avail exemption u/s 54 only from investment in property no.3 & not 2.
Most welcome for any further clarifications. Thanks.

I have superannuation schrme with presemt employer and they have discountinued the same. I sm of age 54 years now and employer asked to withdraw 33% fund and balance fund will convert in pension scheme. I have question that this 33% fund will attract tax as per Invome tax of Indian Govt?

Ans: 01. Payment of 33% of Fund being received at the time of Voluntary Retirement/Superannuation is taxable under the head "Income from Salary." However, a maximum of Rs.5,00,000.00 is exempted u/s 10(10)(C), subject to certain conditions. Since your question does not specify the nature of Job, the Company in which you served, Length of service & Whether the scheme of Superannuation is approved or not etc,, it is difficult to give you a clear view.
Most welcome for any further clarifications. Thanks.

Career

Hello Sir, this is Brahmendra an IT professional for past 20 years. My son is studying +1 and preparing for JEE along with other engineering entrance exams. Academically, he is an above average student (scored 90% in class X CBSE) but has good aptitude & reasoning skills. Somehow, he likes to study mechanical engineering. Q1) Nationally, what colleges are good/best for mechanical? 2) In worst case, if he could not get into premium colleges like NITs, IITs, VITs & CBITs etc., can he still make a good career in that field? 3) Are there enough campus interviews happening for that branch in their industry and do they have enough off-campus opportunities? Being in IT industry, I am aware even an average student with good skills in programming can easily make their career. But when I was teaching him the programming in his previous classes, he did not find it interesting.

Ans: A1. IITs and NITs are best A2. In that case, he should do master's from foreign university A3. Campus interviews and off-campus is less than IT/CSE
