One thing that the taxpayer should take special care of is that he should fill all the information correctly in the ITR. If any mistake is made, the ITR is rejected by the Income Tax Department. Let us tell you which documents you should keep ready while filing income tax return.
Form 16
Form 16 is very important while filing returns. Although Form 16 is issued by the company. But, if the taxpayer has changed jobs in the financial year, then he should get Form 16 from the old company before filing the return. Form 16 contains all the information about the taxpayer’s income along with the details of Tax Deduction at Source (TDS).

Before filing the return, the taxpayer must check whether all the information in Form-16 is correct or not.
Interest Certificate
We get interest on the amount deposited in the bank. If we have invested in FD or any other scheme, then we have to give information about the returns received on that to the Income Tax Department.
The best way to get all the details like interest and returns is through Interest Certificate. The Interest Certificate contains the details of the bank’s interest along with other interest rates.
If interest of up to Rs 10,000 is received annually on the saving account, then there is no tax on it.
Income Source
Many taxpayers earn income from many other sources along with their jobs. For income, they invest in many places like Mutual Funds or share market etc. Information about these investments also has to be given to the Income Tax Department.
While filing ITR, the taxpayer has to tell where he has invested and how much profit he has earned from there. If the taxpayer has received capital gain through investment, then its details also have to be given in ITR.
