In Bangladesh, a zero income tax return is a type of tax return filed by a taxpayer with no income to report. This type of return is typically filed by unemployed taxpayers or those with very low incomes. While a zero income tax return may not result in a refund, it can help to reduce the amount of taxes owed.
Today’s discussion is mainly about zero income tax returns. Many people do not know zero income tax and how to pay it.
Today’s discussion can help you get a clear idea about zero income tax, and it can help you file income tax. So let’s read the discussion carefully from beginning to end
Zero Income Tax Return Information
Many of us do not understand the difference between taxable income tax returns and zero income tax returns. Many people do not have a clear idea about whether they have to pay any amount for income tax on zero tax returns.
Basically, a zero income tax return is an income tax return where the individual has to file only an income tax return. But no money has to be paid for income tax.
If a person has a TIN and his income is within the tax-free income limit, he will file a zero income tax return. Tax-free income limits vary from individual to individual. So let’s know what the tax-free income limits for individuals are –
- Annual taxable income of TK 3,00,000 or less in the case of the male taxpayer.
- Female taxpayers, taxpayers aged 65 years or above, and taxpayers of the third gender with an annual taxable income of TK 3,50,000 or less.
- In the case of gazetted war casualties and freedom fighter taxpayers, the annual taxable income is TK 4,75,000 or less.
- For disabled taxpayers, annual taxable income is TK 4,50,000 or less.
So if a person’s income is within the above tax-free age limit and if he has TIN, he must file a Zero income tax return. If a person has no income but has a TIN, he must file an income tax return.
But if an individual’s annual income is within the tax-free age limit and does not have a TIN, he does not have to file an income tax return. A person with a TIN must file an income tax return. However, there may be some exceptions in this case. For example-
- If a person has an e-TIN for a credit card and his income is within the tax-free income limit.
- If a person takes e-TIN for the sale of land and his income is within the tax-free income limit.
- If a person is a non-resident who has no fixed base in Bangladesh.
However, if a person wants to file an income tax return voluntarily after fulfilling the above conditions, he can do so. Anyone can easily prepare his or her zero income tax return with BD Tax’s automated software.
