Frequently Asked Questions

How much does ITR filing cost in India?
ITR filing cost depends on who files it and which ITR form applies. Filing it yourself on incometax.gov.in is free — there is no government charge. Professional CA-assisted filing is priced according to the complexity of your return: a simple salaried ITR-1 costs the least, while returns with capital gains (ITR-2), business income with books of accounts (ITR-3), or NRI/foreign income involve more work and cost more. TaxClue offers fixed, transparent pricing for every ITR type — contact us for a personalised quote.
Is it free to file ITR yourself?
Yes. Filing your income tax return yourself on the official Income Tax e-filing portal (incometax.gov.in) is completely free. There are no government charges for ITR filing. However, DIY filing requires you to accurately compute income from all sources, apply correct deductions under Sections 80C, 80D, 80G, etc., reconcile with Form 26AS and AIS, and choose the correct ITR form. Errors can attract notices, defective return notices, or demand for unpaid tax. Professional filing ensures accuracy and deduction optimisation.
What does a CA charge for ITR filing?
A CA's charge for ITR filing depends on the complexity of your income. A simple salaried return (ITR-1) with one employer and no capital gains costs the least. Returns with capital gains from stocks or mutual funds (ITR-2) involve more computation, and business income returns (ITR-3/ITR-4) with books of accounts involve the most work. Factors that raise the fee: multiple income sources, foreign income or assets, crypto/F&O trades, and audit applicability. TaxClue has fixed, transparent pricing with no hidden fees — contact us for a personalised quote.
What is TaxClue's ITR filing price?

All plans include: Form 26AS and AIS reconciliation, deduction review and optimisation, tax computation, e-filing, and e-verification. Government filing fee: nil (ITR filing is free on the government portal). Contact us on WhatsApp for a personalised quote.
Is ITR filing by CA better than self-filing?
CA-assisted ITR filing is better if: you have multiple income sources (salary + capital gains + rent + freelance), you are an NRI, you have foreign assets or income, you have business income, you want maximum deductions identified, or you have received an income tax notice. Self-filing is fine for simple salaried individuals with one employer, no capital gains, and standard deductions only. In TaxClue's experience, CA-assisted filing finds ₹5,000–₹50,000 in additional refunds or deductions for many clients due to missed claims.
