New Delhi, Aug 21 (KNN) Special IT return counters will be organised for salaried tax payers, including pensioners, to file paper returns between August 24-31 at Pratyaksha Kar Bhawan in the national capital.
“The camp will be inaugurated by Chairperson of the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT), Anita Kapur at 10 am on Monday, August 24,” Ministry of Finance said in a release.

“Taxpayers may note that for the assessment year 2015-16, corresponding to the financial year 2014-15, e-filing of return of income is mandatory for persons whose total income exceeds Rs 5 lakhs or if the return contains a claim for refund. Paper Returns in such cases will not be accepted,” the release said.
However, the income limit of Rs 5 lakhs and claim of refund will not apply to taxpayer over the age of 80 years deriving salary/pension income. In such cases paper returns will be accepted, it added.
There will also be special facilitation counters for senior citizens and differently abled persons.
Facilities like a helpdesk, assistance of Tax Return Preparers (TRPs), UTI/NSDL counters, banking, tax payment facility, PAN verification counters, drinking water, and emergency medical aid will be available at the venue.
Similar facilitation counters are being set-up in other metropolitan cities based on the local requirement. (KNN Bureau)
