Know About AIS Form: The last date for filing Income Tax Return (ITR) is 31st July. If you have not filed your ITR yet, then do it soon. If you are going to file a return, then Form 26AS is also required along with Form 16. But do you know that apart from these two forms, another form is necessary. This form contains all the information related to your transactions. If anything is missed while filing ITR, then it can be difficult.

What is this form

The name of the form we are talking about is AIS (Annual Information Statement). This form contains the information of your transactions that you do online or use PAN. Sometimes the information of some transactions is not in Form 16 or 26AS, but that information is in AIS.

Therefore, before filing the return, match all your transactions with the AIS form. If there is any transaction about which there is no information in Form 16 or 26AS but there is in AIS, then fill it while filing ITR.

Many times we forget to give information

Actually, the government has linked everything related to every person’s transactions to the PAN card. Whatever transaction you do which is linked to the PAN card, the government has complete information about it.

This information also has to be given in the ITR form. Many times it happens that we forget to give information about that transaction in the ITR form. For this, a special facility called AIS was launched by the Income Tax Department for taxpayers.
