Income Tax Returns for Companies​

Introduction

Filing an income tax return is an important process for the company through which it reports its income and tax paid thereon to the Income Tax department.

All companies registered in India, be it a private limited company, company, limited company, one person and section 8 company have to mandatorily file an income tax return and MCA annual return every year.

The income tax return must be filed by the companies regardless of profit or loss. So, even dormant companies, who have not executed any transaction, need to file an income tax return every year.

ITR for Companies

Income Tax Return has to be filed in Form ITR -6 by private limited companies, one-person companies and limited companies before the due date to file the ITR for a company i.e. on or before the 31st of October.

Companies other than companies who are eligible to claim exemption u/s 11 companies have to file their income tax return in ITR-6 Form. Companies who earn income from properties which are held by them for charitable or religious purposes are eligible to claim exemption u/s 11.

So, the companies which do not claim an exemption for income earned from property held by them for charitable and religious purposes, are eligible to file ITR 6.

Due Date to File ITR for Companies

31st of October is the due date to file an income tax return by the companies registered in India. Unlike MCA annual returns, even if companies are registered from January to March, they must file income tax returns on or before 31st October of the same calendar year.

Businesses which are required to get their account audited have to file their ITR before 30th September 2023.
