Handbook on the Process of E-filing of Income tax Returns

The initiative of the Government to move towards a paperless environment is visible in its decisions to mandate e-filing of returns under various statutes.
Being a partner in nation building, we as Chartered accountants are in a better position to give effect to these decisions of the Government. Thus, we need to update and equip ourselves with the latest technologies so that we are able to provide efficient services to our clients. As you are all aware, apart from the Companies, the Central Board of Direct taxes has now made e-filing of returns along with digital signatures mandatory also for Firms/HUFs and individuals who are required to get their accounts audited under section 44AB of the Income-tax Act, 1961 from the AY 2011-12. This has increased our responsibility towards our clients who rely upon us for providing these services.
In view of the same, an initiative has been taken by the Direct Taxes Committee of ICAI by providing a handbook on the PROCESS OF E-FILING OF INCOME TAX RETURNS.  This handbook would act as a ready referencer for our members for e-filing the income tax returns. The same can be access by clicking the http://220.227.161.86/23442e-filing_ITR_hbook.pdf
