Frequently asked questions
Which ITR form should a salaried employee in Hyderabad use?
Most salaried employees with income from salary, one house property and interest use ITR-1. If you have capital gains, foreign assets (such as RSUs held abroad), or business income, you need ITR-2 or ITR-3.
I received RSUs or ESOPs from a foreign company. Do I need to disclose them?
Yes. Foreign assets and income must be reported in the foreign assets schedule, and any foreign tax paid may be claimed as credit. Missing this is a common cause of notices for people working in Hyderabad's tech sector.
I sold a flat or plot in Hyderabad. How is it taxed?
Long-term capital gain on land or a building bought before 23 July 2024 can be taxed at 12.5% without indexation, or at 20% with indexation for resident individuals and HUFs. Exemptions such as Section 54 may apply if you reinvest. We compute both ways.
Is Hyderabad treated as a metro city for HRA?
From Tax Year 2026-27 (April 2026 onwards), Hyderabad is treated as a metro for HRA at 50% of salary. For FY 2025-26 returns being filed now, the earlier non-metro 40% limit applies.
What is the last date to file my return?
The July 31 and August 31 dates for AY 2026-27 have passed. A belated return can be filed until 31 December 2026 with a late fee. Read our guide on belated and revised returns.
