E-ITR were notified recently and they are available on websites of CBDT
https://www.incometaxindia.gov.in/Pages/downloads/income-tax-return.aspx. I had downloaded various
forms (ITR-1 to ITR 7 and ITR-V) on 06.04.2018. Various forms are also available on many websites.
However, these forms for AY 2018-19 are not yet available on e-filing portal.
Without forms being available on e-filing portal one cannot upload e-itr.

E-ITR FORMS NOT AVAILABLE ON
From the above page we find that in selection drop list AY 2017-18 is on top. AY 2018-19 is not appearing.
As the ITR form for AY 2018-19 is not available, I could not select AY as a consequence I cannot proceed for selection of form number and selection for mode of submission. Please see the following screen shot:
Therefore, for all practical purposes, E-ITR forms are not yet available for e-filing.
These should be uploaded on e-filing portal immediately.
My earlier article about extra sheet IN ITR for explanations and claims:
In my following article
https://www.taxtmi.com/article/detailed?id=7923
I had suggested for provision in E-ITR for submissions of explanations and claims for consideration of AO.
In new E-ITR forms for ay 2018-19 also we do not find any facility of a sheet for submission of explanations and claims for consideration by the AO.
I have also sent feed- back through the e-filing portal and by way of emails to the members of CBDT with copy of my article appended in the body of email. Submission details are as follows:
from: | DEV KUMAR KOTHARI |
to: | [email protected], |

subject: | E-ITR FORM MUST HAVE OPTIONAL SHEETS FOR EXPLANATIONS AND FURTHER CLAIMS FOR CONSIDERATION BY AO On 07.04.2018 I also received a call from CPC Bangalore to confirm that the feed- back has been received and will be forwarded to concerned authorities. Let us hope CBDT will do needful and provide scope for submission of explanations and further claims in the E-ITR. |
