What is Income Tax Return (ITR) Filing in Mizoram?

An income tax return declares a year's income, computes tax under the chosen regime, and reconciles it with taxes already paid. Residents of Mizoram use the same forms as taxpayers elsewhere.

The correct ITR form depends on income sources — salary, house property, capital gains, business or profession.
