Reporting rental income accurately in your Income Tax Return (ITR) is essential for staying compliant and avoiding tax notices.

📌 Determining Taxable Rental Income

Taxed under ‘Income from House Property’.

Includes actual rent received or deemed rent (if the property is vacant).

📌 Deductions You Can Claim

Standard deduction: 30% of annual rental income for upkeep (Section 24).

Home loan interest: Full deduction for rented-out property under Section 24(b).

📌 TDS & Advance Tax Rules

If monthly rent > ₹50,000, tenants must deduct 5% TDS (Section 194-IB).

If annual tax liability > ₹10,000, pay advance tax in installments.

📌 ITR Filing for Rental Income

ITR-1: If only one property is rented out.

ITR-2: For multiple rented properties.

Mention gross rent, deductions, and taxable income clearly.

📌 For NRI Landlords

Tenants must deduct 30% TDS before paying rent to an NRI.

NRIs must file ITR in India and may claim DTAA benefits to avoid double taxation.
