Rajat Jain, Director of Taxes, SS Kothari Mehta & Company (Chartered Accountants), talks about some important things that people usually miss.

Don’t Ignore AIS

Rajat Jain says that now a new option has been added while filing ITR, which is called Annual Information Statement (AIS). This is a detailed description page where you have to give the details of all the financial transactions done by you. Since this can be easily checked by the Income Tax Department, it is better that you fill in the information yourself. He said that it is different from Form-26AS as Form-26AS is primarily a summary of financial statements/transactions where TDS is deducted. However, AIS also covers other transactions. Therefore, while filing the return, make sure to provide the information asked in AIS. Fill every information in this section properly, any kind of mismatch can cause problems in future.
