The government online tax portal is very skeletal, according to tax experts, and tax filers often get confused regarding the various procedures required to file various types of income. “Section 89 is seeing a lot of action due to salary arrears, but people don’t know the procedure,” Archit Gupta, founder, ClearTax said. This has created confusion among filers who fear they might end up paying more tax than they need to, according to the CEO of a private tax advisory company. “The government website makes you do all the calculations — capital gains, etc —manually,” Mr. Gupta said. This proportion is expected to grow.
