What filing an income tax return involves in Bochahan
Filing from Bochahan is done entirely on the e-filing portal. You need a PAN linked to Aadhaar, a mobile number for the verification OTP and a bank account validated for refunds. The form depends on the income — ITR-1 for salary or pension with interest, ITR-4 for a small business or profession on the presumptive scheme, ITR-2 or ITR-3 where there are capital gains or regular books. Agricultural income is exempt but is still reported.
Returns for a financial year are due by 31 July for salaried and other non-business taxpayers, 31 August for business and professional returns without audit, and 31 October where a tax audit applies. From 1 April 2026 the Income-tax Act, 2025 applies and the year is called the “tax year”. Bihar levies professional tax on salaries; the amount your employer deducts is allowed as a deduction under the old regime.
What the service includes, wherever you are in India, is set out on our Income Tax Filing service page.
Income tax in Bochahan: who files and why
Orchard income is the distinctive item in Bochahan’s returns. An owner who grows and sells his own litchi has agricultural income; an owner who leases the standing orchard to a contractor for the season also has agricultural income; but the contractor who buys the crop and sells it is running a business. The same fruit, three treatments. Add the block’s government staff and the contractors on highway and panchayat works, and that is most of who files here.
Orchard owners
Lease or sale proceeds reported as agricultural income, exempt but disclosed.
Seasonal orchard contractors
Business income for a short season — presumptive scheme usually fits.
Works contractors
TDS on bills recovered through the return.
What to watch, by type of taxpayer
Farmers & Landowners. Many farming families file a return without owing any tax — for a Kisan Credit Card limit, a tractor or housing loan, or a visa file. The return then has to show agricultural income in its own schedule, with the district and the area of land for larger amounts. Compensation for land acquired under the 2013 land-acquisition law is exempt from income tax, but interest paid for delay in that compensation is taxable in the year it is received.
Government & Bank Staff. For government employees the figures that need checking are rarely the basic pay. They are the employer’s NPS contribution, which is deductible under both regimes up to 14% of salary; allowances that are exempt only within limits; and retirement benefits — gratuity and leave encashment are fully exempt for government staff, while commuted pension and GPF follow their own rules. Under the new regime the standard deduction is ₹75,000.
Contractors & Transporters. A civil or supply contractor can use the presumptive scheme while turnover stays within its limit, declaring 6% of bank receipts and 8% of cash receipts as income. Beyond it, books are needed, and with them TDS duties: once liable to audit, a contractor must himself deduct tax on payments to sub-contractors and on rent. Retention money held back by the department raises a timing question between the bill, the TDS and the income.
Why the details in a return matter
- Interest on delayed land-acquisition compensation is taxable even where the compensation itself is exempt.
- A government employee who misses the employer-NPS deduction pays tax on money that never reached his hands.
- A contractor under audit who pays sub-contractors without deducting TDS loses 30% of that expense as a deduction.
- Banks and visa offices usually ask for the returns of the last two or three years, filed on time.
- A return filed after the due date carries a late fee and interest, and some losses can no longer be carried forward.
How we prepare your return
- Documents in. You send Form 16 or income details, bank statements and investment proofs — photos over WhatsApp are fine.
- Cross-check. We download your AIS and tax statement and match every entry with your papers, so nothing is missed or counted twice.
- Computation for approval. You see the tax under both regimes, the refund or tax payable, and confirm before filing.
- Filing and e-verification. The return is filed, e-verified with Aadhaar OTP and the acknowledgement sent to you; we watch the refund status afterwards.

ITR filing in Bochahan: common questions
Income from leasing agricultural land with a standing orchard is generally treated as agricultural income and is exempt, though it must be shown in the return when you have other taxable income. The trader’s profit from selling the fruit, by contrast, is taxable business income.
Compensation for land acquired under the 2013 land-acquisition law is exempt from income tax, whether the land is rural or urban. Interest paid for delay in compensation is treated differently: it is taxable in the year you receive it, half of it is allowed as a deduction, and tax is deducted at source.
For central and state government employees, gratuity and leave encashment received at retirement are fully exempt. For others the exemption is subject to limits — ₹25 lakh for leave encashment. Leave encashed while still in service is taxable for everyone.
Retention money is generally taxed in the year you become entitled to receive it under the contract, not when the bill is raised. Because TDS may be deducted earlier, the credit has to be claimed in the year the income is offered — a point to state clearly in the return.
An intimation after processing is routine — it either confirms your figures or shows an adjustment. A defective-return notice or a query on mismatch needs a reply within the time given. Send us the notice and we will explain it and respond.
The fee is fixed and quoted in writing before we start, based on the type of income — a salary-only return costs less than one with capital gains or business income. The first consultation is free.
