For whom ITR Form-1

ITR-1 is applicable to those individuals whose total income does not exceed Rs 50 lakh in a financial year. Apart from this, the source of his income should not be from capital gain, business income. If their income is from salary or from house property and other sources, then they can file ITR using ITR-1 form.

ITR Form-4 is for such taxpayers.

ITR-4 is applicable to persons earning income from their business and profession and their income is taxed on presumptive basis. Such taxpayers can file returns using ITR form ITR-4.

Difference between offline form and online form

Online forms are different from excel utility ie offline forms. Because in case of excel utility, taxpayer has to download the form later and fill the form with required information.
