14 January 2016 In case of a deceased assessee, his legal representative is liable to file his ITR.
This requires registration of a legal heir on income tax website which involves a legal procedure also.
If his accounts are required to be audited as his income exceeds the prescribed limits for tax -audit. Any income arising after his death will be taxable in the hands of the successor. Contact a CA for moving ahead in this matter.
