ITR-1 (Sahaj) is one of the most commonly used Income Tax Return (ITR) forms for individuals who have income from salaried or pensioned sources. This form is designed for individuals with straightforward income, such as salary, pension, or income from one house property, and is an essential form for taxpayers who are filing their returns for the first time or have simple sources of income.

Timely Tax Compliance: Filing your ITR-1 ensures that you comply with the Income Tax Act, avoiding penalties for late filing or non-filing.
Claim Refunds: If excess TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) has been deducted, filing ITR-1 allows you to claim a refund.

Financial Record Keeping: Filing returns provides a record of your income and taxes paid, which is necessary for financial planning, loans, or visa applications.
Easier Loan Processing: Tax returns serve as a proof of income, which can be required for applying for personal loans, home loans, or credit cards.
