What tax returns must I file after Startup India recognition?

The return type depends on the entity, income, turnover, tax registrations and transactions. Income-tax returns may be required, along with GST, TDS or other filings when applicable. Maintain books and a filing calendar rather than assuming registration replaces tax compliance. DPIIT recognition is not incorporation and does not automatically grant tax exemptions or funding. Eligibility depends on entity form, age, turnover and innovation-related criteria under current rules. Before submitting, compare the latest rules and forms with the facts of your particular case. Keep supporting documents, receipts and approval communications in a secure file. If the activity is regulated or the facts are unusual, obtain advice from a qualified professional.
