The Income Tax Department has opened the portal for filing ITR form 1, 2 and 4. These three forms are meant to be filed by individuals and Hindu Undivided Families. However, they are different from each other depending upon the type of income. The Income Tax Return (ITR) filing is done for the assessment year 2019-20. Taxpayers must make sure they file their ITR for financial year 2018-19 before due date which is July 31,2019.
