02 — How it works

Built for filings & audits.

Most deduction errors aren’t mistakes in the maths — they’re missing receipts. This tool tracks both. Every claim sits next to its proof reference and verification status, and the audit block tells you what’s still outstanding before you file.

01

Add each claim

Section code, description, category, amount, limit, proof reference. Limit can be left as 0 for uncapped sections like home loan principal.

02

Track proof status

Mark each item Verified, Pending, Missing, or Not Required. The summary shows counts at a glance — missing items get flagged in red.

03

Export PDF + XLSX

PDF: summary cards, full deductions table, category rollup, section rollup, proof-audit block, notes. XLSX has 4 numeric sheets ready for the CA.

03 — Audit-trail-first

Every claim, backed by paper.

Section + limit per claim

Each deduction carries its section code (80C, 80D, etc.), its statutory limit, and the amount you're claiming. The tool caps claimable at the limit automatically.

Unused-headroom view

For capped sections, see how much room you have left under the limit. Useful for last-minute investment decisions before year-end.

Proof-status tracking

Verified, Pending, Missing, or Not Required — per claim. Counts roll up to the audit block, and missing items get a warning in the PDF.

9 categories

Investments, insurance, housing, medical, education, charity, pension, business expenses, other. Roll up by category to see where your tax-saving sits.

Two rollups

By category (the way you think about it) and by section code (the way the return is structured). Both included in the PDF and XLSX.

PDF + 4-sheet XLSX

PDF: summary cards + deductions table + category rollup + section rollup + proof audit + notes. XLSX: Summary, Deductions, By Category, By Section.

04 — Common questions

Everything about deduction summaries.

01How is this different from the Income Tax Estimator?

The Estimator computes your total tax across slabs using a single total-deductions figure. This Summary breaks that figure down section-by-section and tracks proof for each — what the estimator treats as one number, the summary explains.

02Can I use this for non-Indian tax systems?

Yes — section codes are free-text, so you can use UK self-assessment categories (charity / pension contributions / professional fees), US Schedule A line items, or any other jurisdiction's scheme. The proof-status and limit logic works the same way.

03What does "limit = 0" mean?

It means the section has no statutory cap — the full amount you enter is claimable. Use it for uncapped categories like NPS (80CCD(1B) above ₹50K) or HRA exemption (capped only by formula, not a flat number).

04What if a claim exceeds the limit?

The "claimable" column is automatically capped at the limit; the form shows "(capped)" next to the input. The unused-headroom column shows zero. Your actual receipt is preserved in the amount field — handy if you need to defend why you claimed less.

05Should I share this with my CA / employer?

Yes — that's what it's for. Export PDF for a clean hand-off, or XLSX if your CA wants to manipulate the numbers. For employer declarations (India Form 12BB), the section-by-section structure maps directly.

06Output formats?

PDF (single document with summary cards, full deductions table, category rollup, section rollup, proof-audit block, notes — auto-paginated) and XLSX (4 sheets: Summary, Deductions, By Category, By Section). All numeric columns are real numbers.
