ITR Filing 2025: You can file returns from home using a mobile app, know the easiest way..

ITR Filing 2025: The last date for filing Income Tax Return (ITR) for the year 2025 is fast approaching. If you have not yet filed the return, then complete it in time. Because after the last date, late fees and penalties may be imposed.

Meanwhile, the Income Tax Department has launched two special mobile apps for the convenience of taxpayers, with the help of which you can file ITR comfortably and safely from home.

Now you can file returns from mobile.

The Income Tax Department has launched two mobile apps named AIS for Taxpayer and Income Tax Department (Aaykar Setu). These apps are available on both Android and iOS platforms. They aim to make ITR filing so easy that even the common man can fill his tax return himself without any help. These apps are specially designed for employed people, pensioners, and small taxpayers.

How to file ITR from the mobile app?

First of all, you have to download these apps on your mobile. Then follow the easy steps given below:

1. Login:

As soon as you open the app, you will have to log in with the help of your PAN, Aadhaar, and password. If you have not registered before, then you will have to create a new account.

2. Automatic data will be available:

After logging in, the app will show your annual information (Annual Information Statement) related to places like your bank, employer, and mutual fund. This will require you to fill in very little data manually.

3. Choose the right ITR form:

The app will automatically tell you which ITR form is right for you based on your income (salary, pension, capital gain, etc.).

4. Check and update the information:

If any information is wrong or something is missing, like FD interest, rental income, then you can add it manually.

5. Do e-verification:

When all the information is filled correctly, you can e-verify the return with Aadhaar OTP, net banking, or digital signature. You will also get an immediate acknowledgement as soon as the return is submitted.

What documents will be required?

Before filing ITR, you must have these three things, which include an active and valid PAN card, current mobile number and email ID.

The e-filing portal of the Income Tax Department is no longer just a means to file ITR, but is a complete tax management service. Here you can not only deposit tax, but also check the refund status, respond to notices from the department and also check old filing records.
