File ITR for Income from Other Sources
All the income coming from sources other than “house property”, “salary”, “business/profession”, and “capital gains” comes under the “other sources’ head in the Income Tax Act. The IT Act of 1961 categorized income into 5 heads, and income from other sources is one of them. This head is quite complex and comprehensive, as it is a residuary head. Some of the common components of income from other sources are the following.
- Interest- coming from savings accounts, fixed deposits, recurring deposits, and bonds, though post office savings are partially exempted
- Dividend income- dividends from shares or units of mutual funds, more than Rs 10 lakh
- Gifts and winnings- monetary and non-monetary gifts above Rs 50,000 received from non-relatives
- Rental income from subletting
- Income from other sources such as royalties, interest on delayed tax refunds
- Winnings from online games
- Employee’s contribution towards the staff welfare scheme
- Interest on securities
- Rental income coming from machinery, plant, and furniture
- Sum received under the Keyman insurance policy
- Advance money received during negotiations for the transfer of a capital asset
- Deemed income
- Amount received under a life insurance policy
- Any other income not taxed under other heads
- Compensation on termination of employment or modification of terms of employment
