ITR-5 Return Filing

The Income Tax Department has introduced various forms for different taxpayers. An assesses should choose the appropriate ITR form as per the source of income. One such Income Tax Return (ITR) is the ITR 5 Form. It is primarily designed for firms, Association of Persons (AOP), and Body of Individuals (BOI) who are not required to file their income tax returns as companies.

The ITR 5 due date depends on whether the taxpayer’s accounts need to be audited under the Income-Tax Act and whether they must furnish a report in Form No. 3CEB. Here are the different ITR 5 due dates:

  • When accounts are to be audited under the Income-Tax Act: The due date for filing ITR-5, in this case, is 31st October of the assessment year.
  • When a report in Form No. 3CEB is to be furnished: If the taxpayer is needed to furnish a report in Form No. 3CEB, the due date for filing ITR5 is 30th November of the assessment year.
  • In other cases (where accounts need not be audited): For taxpayers where accounts do not need to be audited under the Income-Tax Act, the ITR 5 due date is 31st July of the assessment year.

The ITR 5 form is not meant for the following categories of taxpayers:

  • Individual assesses: Individuals should use the appropriate ITR form based on their sources of income. For example, most individual taxpayers use ITR-1, ITR-2, or other forms as applicable.
  • Hindu Undivided Family (HUF): HUFs must also use the relevant ITR form based on their income sources. Typically, they use ITR-2 or other applicable forms.
  • Company: Companies have their own set of ITR forms, such as ITR-6, for companies other than those claiming exemption under section 11.
  • Taxpayers who using Form ITR-7: Individuals or entities falling under Sections 139(4A), 139(4B), 139(4C), 139(4D), 139(4E), or 139(4F) are required to use Form ITR-7 for filing their income tax returns. These sections cover charitable trusts, political parties, educational institutions, etc.

It’s important to note that there is no requirement to attach documents with the ITR 5 income tax form.
