Please don't file for complex cases

So my husband changed job in FY16-17. 6 months he was with one employer. 6 months with another. The salary for both of them individually placed him in just 2.5-5Lac bracket and so both the companiea deducted TDS at a nominal 5%. But obviously, total income of my husband will be sum of salaries from both the employer thus placing him in 5Lac-10Lac bracket or 20% tax liability.


He didn’t think about this and just simply used Cleartax for filing IT return. He uploaded both Employer’s Form 16 and voila his return was filed successfully by ClearTax on 20/June, only to get IT Dept notification on 26/July that income has been under-reported. Now, I am very impressed at the government’s robust system. It correctly highlighted the mistake.


Bottom line I had to do my husband’s taxes again and had to pay three times the tax what he had paid through TDS. Not to forget the 2000INR penalty becuase tax paid on 31/Mar/17 was less than 90% of the tax.


So this website may be a nice platform but if your case is complicated do not fill using this website.
