Everything You Need to Know About the Submission of Investment Declaration Proof
As you might have submitted investment declarations in a form called form 12BB at the beginning of a financial year to ensure a higher in-hand salary, it is the time when your employer will verify the genuineness of the claims made by you. The document verification by the employer will be more stringent. Let's have a look at the important points that you need to keep in mind!
Key Points to Keep in Mind While Submitting Tax Investment Proof
Investment declaration proof must be submitted carefully to avoid any rejection of the claim by the employer.
- Check how much you have contributed or still need to contribute for the investments shown in the form 12BB.
- Do not limit tax savings to Section 80C. There are other tools of investment, too.
- Explore all tax-saving strategies available to you
- Ensure that you have copies of all the investment documents.
For What tax-saving Investments the Declaration shall be Made?
Investment declaration has to be made for the following tax-saving investments and expenses:
- Rent receipts to claim the tax benefit on house rent allowance
- Leave travel concessions or assistance
- Home loan interest
- Deductions under Section 80C, 80CCC, 80CCD
- 80CCD: Investment made to NPS
- 80C: Premium paid for life insurance, PPF, ELSS, children's tuition fees, etc
- Deductions under other sections like 80D, 80E, 80G, 80TTA, etc.
- 80D: income tax deduction related to the medical insurance premium
- 80E: Interest paid on education loan
- 80G: Donations made to specified organizations
Why should you Submit Proof of Investment?
Employees can reduce their taxable income by submitting proof of investment. Employees can take advantage of tax rebates by submitting relevant proof for TDS deduction.
What if you failed to submit proof?
If you have not submitted proof of your investment and your employer has deducted excess TDS, then you can claim a refund for the extra TDS deducted by filing your income tax return.
