Overview :
Income tax filing is the process of submitting your income, expenses, and tax details to the government (in Bangladesh, to the National Board of Revenue – NBR) to report how much you earned in a financial year, and how much tax you owe or already paid.
📌 What is Income Tax Filing?
Income tax filing means:
-
Declaring your total income from all sources (job, business, property, investments, etc.)
-
Calculating the tax payable as per income slabs
-
Submitting the information through an official form (commonly IT-11GA for individuals in Bangladesh)
-
Paying the due tax, or claiming a refund if you paid more
It’s usually done once a year (assessment year: July 1 to June 30) and includes:
-
Proof of tax payment (challan)
-
Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN)
-
Statement of assets and liabilities (for some taxpayers)
