Dear Kumar,
ITR-1 (Saral-II) is For Individuals having Income from Salary / Pension / Income from One House Property (excluding loss brought forward from previous years) / Income from Other Sources (Excluding Winning from Lottery and Income from Race Horses.
ITR-2 is For Individuals and HUFs not having Income from Business or Profession

U mean to say a person having Income from other sources and from house property can fill in either of the form. Then why they made two forms for same purpose. |

Because, person having more than one house property and having a brought forward Loss from previous years or having income of Winnings from Lottery and Race Horses cannot file ITR-1. He has to mandatorily file his return in ITR-2
Further HUF cannot file ITR-1.

In addition to above replies, ITR 1 can be filed in respect of one property only.
