ZenIT || Software not suggesting any ITR form in case of Individual

What to do when the Income Tax Software does not suggest any ITR form in the case of an Individual ?
Income Tax Software has a feature that suggests the appropriate ITR to be submitted based on the details entered under specific income heads such as Salary, House Property, Business, Capital gain, etc. However, there are instances where the software may not suggest any ITR due to the unavailability of properly entered data. One common scenario for such issues is when there are Brought forward losses or Set-offs.

As shown in the screenshot below, data has been entered for Salary head and Other Source Income. However, the software is not suggesting either ITR-1 or ITR-2.


Solution to the above:
Step 1:
Go to Forms → Computation → Click on e-ITR-2  >> "Reason why ITR- 1 or ITR 2 are not being selected would be suggested by the software."


Step 2:
To check the same, Go to → Transactions → Set off & B/F


Step 3:
If there are Business Brought Forward losses available, the applicable ITR to be generated is ITR-3. Proceed below to enter the data for the Nature of Business.

Go To Transaction → Filing Information → Nature of business:


Once the details for Nature of Business are entered and saved, the generated computation will indicate ITR-3 in green color for XML file generation and submission.

Hope This Helps.
