E-Verification of Tax Returns

 
The e-verification process introduced by the Income Tax Department this year completes the returns filing process in a jiffy.
 
The e-verification of returns, introduced this year by the income tax department makes tax-filing a seamless process.
 

Till last year, if you did not have a digital signature, you had to send a copy of the ITR V to the Central Processing Centre in Bengaluru. From this year, the tax department has introduced an alternate way of paperless e-filing via Electronic Verification Code (EVC). The electronic code generation process may vary, depending on the taxpayer's profile and the channel used for accessing the e-filing website.

 

After you have filed your returns, you have the option of e-verifying it. Filing and e-verfication can be done seamlessly and you can finish the whole process in one go. Despite this relative ease, most people do not seem to be opting for this route. According to the income tax department website, of the total 62.19 lakh returns filed so far, only 12.8 lakh taxpayers have availed of the e-verification facility. The method is not complicated and most of the taxpayers who e-file are techsavvy. So, there seems to be a lack of awareness among people about this option.

 

To help you navigate the process, here are all the details you need to know about electronic verification, how it works and the various ways in which you can generate the EVC.

 

Since you get a 120-day period, starting the day you file your returns, for verification, you may still have time left to go for e-verification of your return. After all, those post office queues can be pretty long.

Understanding Your Cibil Credit Information Report

   WE ARE all familiar with the anxiety and uncertainty that we feel when applying for a loan. After all, it's the lender who decides whether we can own our dream home, our first car, or whether our children can pursue higher education. In a nutshell, a better life depends on the lender's decisions.    While other factors do play a part in the lender's decision, the Cibil Credit Information Report ( CIR ) plays a crucial role in a lender's decision to approve a loan application.    Previously, lenders would treat all loan seekers equally. Each applicant, if approved by the lender's internal credit policy, would be charged at the same interest rate for a particular loan size and purpose. The lenders would charge a higher interest rate to all the borrowers, in order to compensate for the possible default of a small portion of the loan disbursed. In other words, it's like a professor (the lender) punishing an entire class (borrowers) for the mischief played b...

Myths about Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs)

1) ETFs Are Similar to Individual Stocks: Like MFs, ETF consist of an underlying portfolio of securities that's designed to follow a specific index or investment strategy. Hence, they are as diversified as various mutual funds. 2) ETFs Only Invest in Equity: Since they are listed on the exchange, the general belief is that ETF only consists of equity asset class. Globally, ETFs are available across asset classes – equity, debt, commodities, real estate and so on. In fact, over the past couple of years, India has also seen the emergence of Gold ETFs. 3) All ETFs Are Index Funds: ETF started as a fund which used to track indices and hence they were branded as index funds that are listed. However, ETFs have progressed rapidly and are no longer associated only with passive index funds. Globally, we have seen the launch of actively-managed ETFs. In India, also we recently saw the emer gence of fundamentally-weighted ETFs on Nifty, which busts the myth that ETFs are index funds and can...
