data which is auto-filled from your e-Filing profile. You will not be able to edit

changes by going to your e-Filing profile. You can edit your contact details, filing
type details and bank details in the form.

**3.2 Gross Total Income**

In the **Gross Total Income** section, you need to review the pre-filled information
and verify your income source details from salary / pension, house property, and
other sources (such as interest income, family pension, etc.).You will also be required
to enter the remaining / additional details including your exempt income, if any.

**3.3 Total Deductions**

In the **Total Deductions** section, you need to add and verify any deductions you
wish to claim under Chapter VI-A of the Income Tax Act.

for AY 2021-22.

**How to Access and Submit ITR – 1**

You can file and submit your ITR through the following methods:

 * Online Mode – through e-Filing portal
 * Offline Mode – through Offline Utility

## **Step 1:** Log in to the e-Filing portal using your user ID and password.

**Step 2: **On your **Dashboard**, click **e-File > Income Tax Returns > File Income
Tax Return.**

**Step 3:** Select **Assessment Year **as 2021 – 22 and click **Continue**.

**Step 4: **Select **Mode of Filing **as Online and click **Proceed**.

**Note:** In case you have already filled the Income Tax Return and it is pending
for submission, click **Resume Filing**. In case you wish to discard the saved return
and start preparing the return afresh click **Start New Filing.**

**Step 5:** Select **Status** as applicable to you and click **Continue** to proceed
further.

**Step 6:** You have two options to select the type of Income Tax Return:

If you are not sure which ITR to file, you may select **Help me decide which ITR
Form to file **and click **Proceed**. Once the system helps you determine the correct
ITR, you can proceed with filing your ITR.

**Note: **

 * In case you are not aware which ITR or schedules are applicable to you or income
   and deductions details, your answers in response to a set of questions will guide
   in determining the same and help you in correct / error free filing of ITR.
 * In case you are aware of the ITR or schedules applicable to you or income and
   deduction details, you can skip these questions.

**Step 7:** Once you have selected the ITR applicable to you, note the list of documents
needed and click **Let’s Get Started**.

**Step 8: **Select the checkboxes applicable to you and click** Continue.**

**Step 9:** Review your pre-filled data and edit it if necessary. Enter the remaining/
additional data (if required). Click **Confirm** at the end of each section.

**Step 10: **Enter your income and deduction details in the different section. After
completing and confirming all the sections of the form, click **Proceed**.

**Step 10a: In case there is a tax liability**
 You will be shown a summary of your
tax computation based on the details provided by you. If there is tax liability 
payable based on the computation, you get the **Pay Now** and **Pay Later** options
at the bottom of the page.

**Note:**

 * It is recommended to use the **Pay Now** option. Carefully note the **BSR Code**
   and **Challan Serial Number** and enter them in the details of payment.
 * If you opt to **Pay Later**, you can make the payment after filing your Income
   Tax Return, but there is a risk of being considered as an assessee in default,
   and liability to pay interest on tax payable may arise.

**Step 10b: In case there is no tax liability (No Demand / No Refund) or if you 
are eligible for a Refund**

After paying tax, click **Preview Return**. If there is no tax liability payable,
or if there is a refund based on tax computation, you will be taken to the **Preview
and Submit Your Return** page.

**Step 11: **On the** Preview and Submit Your Return** page, enter **Place**, select
the declaration checkbox and click **Proceed to Validation.**

**Note:** If you have not involved a tax return preparer or TRP in preparing your
return, you can leave the textboxes related to TRP blank.

**Step 12: **Once validated, on your **Preview and Submit your Return** page, click**
Proceed to Verification**.

**Note:** If you are shown a list of errors in your return, you need to go back 
to the form to correct the errors. If there are no errors, you can proceed to e-
Verify your return by clicking **Proceed to Verification.**

**Step 13:** On the **Complete your Verification** page, select your preferred option
and click **Continue. **

It is mandatory to verify your return, and e-Verification (recommended option – **
e-Verify Now**) is the easiest way to verify your ITR – it is quick, paperless, 
and safer than sending a signed physical ITR-V to CPC by post.

 **Note:** In case you select **e-Verify Later**, you can submit your return, however,
you will be required to verify your return within 120 days of filing of your ITR.

 **Step 14: **On the **e-Verify** page, select the option through which you want
to e-Verify the return and click **Continue**.

**Note:**

 * Refer to the **[How to e-Verify](https://www.incometax.gov.in/iec/foportal//help/how-to-e-verify-your-e-filing-return)**
   user manual to learn more.
 * If you select **Verify via ITR-V,** you need to send a signed physical copy of
   your ITR-V to Centralized Processing Center, Income Tax Department, Bengaluru
   560500 by normal / speed post within 120 days.
 * Please make sure you have pre-validated your bank account so that any refunds
   due maybe credited to your bank account.
 * Refer to the **[My Bank Account](https://www.incometax.gov.in/iec/foportal//help/my-bank-account)**
