18 June 2017 I had made an fixed deposit of 10 lakh on august 2016 and I had never filled income tax return, not even a single time. How can I plan my tax return legally to avoid income tax scrutiny in future. At this point of time this is my only source of income.

18 June 2017 well. you should have the documentary proof to establish the source of the money. Else it is considered as unexplained credits and taxed accordingly

18 June 2017 Sir, I want to know that how to do the documentation part of that money ,which I received from my brother at that time(in 2016). It should be registered through the notary or simple statement in a plain paper with signature is enough.

18 June 2017 at least the brother should be able to show that he got this money from legitimate sources and the said amounts have already been covered in his taxes. A gift deed is also required.
