ClearTax - Easiest way to file your returns

 

Today, for the first time in 8 years since I began working, I filed my income tax returns. For Free ! And it was the easiest process I have used  for such a process.

If you are working in India, and have received your FORM 16, and wish to now file your ITR, head to ClearTax. All you need is your Form 16, the two docs, and about 10 minutes to upload them to the site.

The actual delay was due to the integration to Govt Of India Tax system, the steps before that are a cakewalk. The system automatically parses out most fields directly from the Form 16 document, you only need to enter details of other investments you might have made, so that the system can calculate the ITR amount.

At the moment, the Site is free to use, but might start charging a nominal fee soon. So …hurry !
