Wrong Tax Regime Selected by Employer
My company deducted TDS throughout the year under the new regime, but after checking deductions, old regime looks better for me. Can this still be corrected while filing the return?

I earned around ₹14 lakh through freelance social media management and content projects this year. Since ITR-4 is available now, can digital marketing freelancers comfortably use 44ADA?
Filing season has started and ITR-1 is already live, but my company said Form 16 will only be issued next month. Can salaried employees file before receiving Form 16 if all salary credits are visible in bank statements?
I recently registered for GST after crossing ₹20 lakh turnover as a freelancer. Now I’m confused about monthly filings, LUT requirements for export services, and whether foreign clients should be charged GST at all. Why does compliance suddenly become so complicated once income starts growing?
I’m an architect earning around ₹42 lakh annually. Everyone says 44ADA is the simplest option because I can directly declare 50% profit without maintaining detailed books. But what if my actual expenses are much higher than 50%? Does choosing presumptive taxation create limitations later?
My annual CTC is around ₹27 lakh and monthly in-hand salary feels decent, but during filing season I suddenly realize how much tax gets added because of bonuses, RSUs, FD interest, and investments. Beyond basic 80C deductions, how are salaried professionals realistically planning taxes now?
Apart from possibly getting refunds earlier, is there any actual advantage to filing immediately after utility release?
I currently stay on rent in Bengaluru because my office is nearby, but I also pay EMI for a flat purchased in Pune where my parents stay. I want to claim both HRA and home loan deductions together. Some colleagues warn this combination attracts scrutiny. Is that actually true?
My freelance income increased from ₹9 lakh to ₹28 lakh for FY 2025-2026 year because of consulting projects. Nobody informed me about advance tax earlier, and now I’m hearing interest under Sections 234B and 234C applies if tax due exceeds ₹10,000. How to avoid it?
I am a freelance designer working with Indian and international clients. My turnover already crossed ₹20 lakh in May because of a few foreign projects. Payments mostly come through Wise and PayPal. Do I need immediate GST registration after crossing the limit or can it wait till year-end filing?
I have a ₹21 lakh salaried job and also earned around ₹7 lakh from freelance consulting this year. Apart from that, I booked short-term gains from stocks and mutual funds. Some people are suggesting ITR-4 under presumptive taxation while others say ITR-3 is compulsory now. Which form actually applies here?
I worked remotely for a US startup and received around $48,000 directly in my Indian account during FY 2025-26. Since the US follows calendar year while India follows financial year, how are people practically calculating and reporting foreign income correctly in Indian ITR?
I sold a property this year and made around ₹75 lakh long-term capital gains. I’m planning to buy an under-construction flat worth ₹1.7 crore. Some relatives are suggesting Section 54 while others are recommending 54EC bonds too. What’s the most practical way people legally reduce capital gains tax in such situations?
I already have a salaried job with ₹16 lakh package, but my YouTube income, affiliate earnings, and paid workshops together crossed ₹11 lakh this year. Most payments came through sponsorships and Razorpay. At what point does side income officially become business income during ITR filing?
Is it only me or anyone else who haven't received ITR refund for last year, now this year's ITR window is coming again!
It's really frustrating!
I earn around ₹18 lakh annually and currently claim ₹1.5 lakh under 80C, ₹2 lakh home loan interest, and HRA benefits. After the revised tax slabs and rebate discussions in Budget 2025, many colleagues are shifting to the new regime. Is old regime still worth it at this income level or are salaried employees now mostly moving to the new regime?
My startup recently allowed ESOP exercise at ₹120 per share while the latest FMV is around ₹500. HR mentioned tax applies on the difference itself. Does this mean I’ll pay tax even before selling shares? What happens if startup valuation drops later?

My home possession is delayed due to this
Today I have received ITR demand notice of 1 lakh. I have already paid some amount in last December but I was surprised to see new demand notice. It looks there is mismatch between old regime and new regime in ITR while filing.
I have opted old regime in my office and submitted deductions but looks like they have not considered that. I am looking for expert (CA/Tax professional with similar experience) for help to resolve this issue.
Also, I missed a notification from them in January that I have filed after due date and hence allowances are not considered. Now due date already crossed to reply to that notification.
Please help
