Income tax on Blogging - How about multiple people working on same website with 1 Adsense account?
If multiple bloggers work on the same website and receive the Adsense income on a single bank account.
Which ITR form should the person use to file an income tax return?
What “business code” should be selected on the form for Adsense - Youtube/Blogging, Amazon Affiliate income (also trading/dividend as minor income)?
If the income exceeds 10L per financial year - But falls below 5L after paying the other bloggers. Does the person have to pay any tax? Where should the name of the other bloggers be mentioned on the ITR form? Do they have to file ITR return as well (what if they earn below 2.5L per FY)?
Can I receive gift up to 50k from others along with it?
What is Advanced tax - Is it necessary here? When does it need to be paid?
What all are the expanses that can be claimed for blogging? Can the blogger also claim 80C (along with the blogging expenses)?
If the person has other income from trading & investing income - but this falls within the income tax slab. Then its ok, right?
Your capital gains will be added to your Total Income. Capital Gains income is usually a special rate income. However, for LTCG which is taxed u/s 112A a deduction up to INR 1,00,000 is available.
If you are a resident, your global income will be taxable. Hence, your foreign dividend will be taxed in India.
However, you can claim tax credit of tax deducted in US while filing your ITR as per DTAA.
Set-off of losses can be done when income and losses are offered in the ITR. You can set off LTCL against LTCG and set off STCL against STCG.
A lot of bloggers and freelancers opt for a presumptive taxation scheme under which they can declare their income at a predefined rate of 50% of the total receipts and file ITR 4.
They are also required to assess the advance tax liability and pay it in the last quarter of the financial year i.e. on or before 15th March.
When opting for presumptive taxation, the taxpayer cannot claim expenses.
However, in case you do not want to take benefit of the presumptive taxation, you can report it as income from business and profession and file ITR 3. You can go for the business code of - 20012 or 14005

@Quicko Are the following charges, from the “Other Credit and Debit” worksheet in the Zerodha Tax PnL excel, taken into account while auto-calculating the expenses in your application? DP Charges, AMC for Demat Charges, Payment Gateway Charges, Call & Trade Charges etc. ?
Here i want to understand the consequences if CA aduits. Like why CA audits is required if loss/profit is less than 6% than turnover is 1cr. Please explain this point.
Hi @nituldas, Quicko <> Zerodha integration takes into account all tradewise data and it’s expenses. However, “Other Credit and Debit” worksheet is not considered when auto calculating.
You can still claim these expenses under Incomes > Business/Profession > Expenses > Other Expenses
Hi @Trader21,
Thanks for using Quicko You can see the transaction history by logging into your Quicko account and navigate to View profile > Income Tax Returns > Select Current ITR/Past ITR > History
@praven_kumar, as per the Income Tax Act and section 44AB, a taxpayer is required to get their books of accounts audited if they had followed the presumptive taxation scheme previously and want to claim losses.
@Quicko I am a zerodha user(DA1967) and logged in to quicko from zerodha console. However I am seeing that it’s picking data of 2020-21 instead of 2019-20. Can you please suggest how to rectify this.
With regards to audit not being applicable for 2 Cr to 5 Cr, is this still applicable if presumptive scheme is adopted and income is above basic exemption?
The data seems to have been imported correctly for FY 2019-20 (AY 2020-21). If you find any discrepancy, please share the screenshot and your TaxPnL on [email protected] so we can take a look.
The Income Tax Department has still not given any clarification on the tax audit applicability when turnover is between INR 2cr to INR 5cr.
Also, if your turnover is above INR 2 cr you cannot opt for the presumptive taxation scheme.
Here’s a tool to help you determine your tax audit applicability
