Section 139(1)

Pranav Parmar (Querist) 26 November 2014 This query is : Resolved
Dear Sir,

section 139(1) of income tax said that if the "total income" of a person is less than maximum amount chargeable to tax then no return is required to file.

My quarty is that
section 139 said word total income that means after deduction of Vi-A deduction.
But many experts said that it is before chapter VI-A deduction. it means it is gross total income.

why the experts are saying like this. is anywhere is mentioned that it before deduction of Chapter VI-A deduction

Please clarify

Mr. Pranav,

No clarification unless you refer the link where as per your statement, "But many experts said that it is before chapter VI-A deduction. it means it is gross total income. why the experts are saying like this. is anywhere is mentioned that it before deduction of Chapter VI-A deduction.?

It seems, as a student, instead of your own interpretation you prefeered to seek solution to you academic question by smartly naming the experts.
