Hi experts, I want to file a return for my sister, who has a tuition income (under the taxable limit), what form should I fill for the filling online return ?
Do I need to prepare P&L account & B/S before I submit the return ?

You will have to file ITR 4S. You do not need to prepare P&L and Balance Sheet. You have to show minimum income equal to 8% of gross receipts. You can show higher income also.

Dear Siddharthji, Thanks a lot for your reply, but could you please explain a bit further regarding showing minimum income equal to 8% ?? The tuition fee she receives every month is in cash, totaling to around 180000.00 in a year. I really appreciate your and other fellow experts.

The assessee has to show a minimum PROFIT (income) of 8% of Rs. 1,80,000 (the gross receipts) to avoid maintaining books of accounts & getting the accounts audited.
