What is an ITR(PL, Balance Sheet)?

ITR (Income Tax Return) refers to the formal document submitted to the tax authorities declaring your income, expenses, and taxes owed. The Profit and Loss (PL) statement outlines a business’s revenues, costs, and profits over a specific period, while the Balance Sheet provides a snapshot of the company’s financial position, detailing assets, liabilities, and equity at a given point in time. Both documents are essential for businesses, as they offer insights into financial health and are crucial for tax filing and securing loans.

Criteria for Filing ITR (PL, Balance Sheet)

The general criteria for self-employed individuals to file ITR (with PL and Balance Sheet) include:

  • Income Threshold: If your income exceeds the taxable limit (₹2.5 lakh for individuals under 60), filing ITR is mandatory.
  • Business Type: Self-employed professionals, business owners, freelancers, and professionals like doctors, lawyers, or consultants need to file ITR along with the PL and Balance Sheet to show income and expenses clearly.
  • Taxable Business Income: Income generated from your business or profession, after deducting allowable expenses, needs to be declared.
  • Audited Financials: If the turnover exceeds ₹1 crore (for businesses) or ₹50 lakh (for professionals), an audit of the financials is mandatory, requiring the submission of a Balance Sheet and PL statement along with the ITR.
  • Documentation: You need to provide details of income, expenses, assets, liabilities, and tax payments to complete the return accurately.

Importance of ITR (PL, Balance Sheet) for Self-Employed Individuals
