ITR-5 Filing Fees in India - Government & Professional costs
ITR-5 filing Fees in India depend on the type of assistance required, the complexity of the return, and whether the return is filed within the prescribed deadline. ITR-5 applies to entities such as partnership firms, LLPs, AOPs, BOIs and co-operative societies. Professional filing can cover document review, income computation, tax calculation, return preparation and e-verification.
What is the Cost of ITR-5 Filing Online?
The overall cost of ITR-5 filing generally consists of professional assistance and any applicable statutory charges. The professional component varies according to the level of support selected and the complexity of the entity's financial information. Government charges generally arise when statutory filing requirements or delayed-filing provisions apply.

ITR-5 Filing Cost Components
ITR-5 is an income tax return filing service rather than a separate business registration. Its cost components therefore relate mainly to return preparation, financial information review, computation and compliance support. The following table outlines the main components without treating professional charges as government registration Fees.
| Component | Notes |
|---|---|
| Document collection and review | Review of financial and supporting documents supplied by the entity. |
| ITR form identification | Confirmation that ITR-5 is the applicable return form. |
| Income computation | Compilation and computation of relevant income details. |
| Tax liability computation | Calculation of payable tax or refund position. |
| Return preparation and filing | Preparation, submission and acknowledgement of the return. |
Government Fees for ITR-5 Filing
There is no separate government professional-service charge for submitting a regular ITR-5 through the income-tax e-filing system. However, statutory charges can apply when a return is filed after the prescribed deadline. For AY 2026-27, the applicable late-filing fee is as follows.
| Government Fee Component | Applicable Amount |
|---|---|
| Late filing fee under Section 234F where total income does not exceed ₹5 lakh | ₹1,000 |
| Late filing fee under Section 234F in other cases | ₹5,000 |
| Interest under Section 234A | 1% per month on unpaid tax liability, where applicable |
The Income Tax Department confirms the ₹1,000 and ₹5,000 late-filing fee structure for AY 2026-27.

Key Factors Affecting ITR-5 Cost
The cost of professional ITR-5 filing can vary according to the entity structure and the complexity of its financial information. Factors may include business income, capital gains, foreign income, multiple income sources, reconciliation requirements, tax deductions, audit-related information and the amount of documentation requiring review.
What is Included in a Professional ITR-5 Package
A professional filing package can simplify the return process by bringing document review, form identification, income computation and filing assistance together. The available IndiaFilings packages can also provide CA-level support, tax planning, reconciliation, notice assistance and other compliance services depending on the selected plan.
For broader Income Tax Return Filing support, IndiaFilings provides professional assistance for return preparation, document verification, filing and compliance.
Additional Fees for ITR-5 Filing
Additional charges may arise when the filing requires services beyond the standard return preparation scope. These can include tax audit-related work, complex reconciliations, notice handling, rectification, specialised tax advisory, foreign-income reporting or other compliance requirements, depending on the circumstances and service selected.
Any tax payable, statutory interest or government-imposed late fee is separate from a professional service fee. Businesses should also maintain accurate records and meet applicable filing deadlines to minimise avoidable compliance consequences.
