India Income Tax Utility for AY 2021-22.

**kagashe** · April 18th, 2021

Since AY 2013-14 India Income Tax website was providing utility based on JRE and I could use it on Ubuntu to prepare the Income Tax Return. The output of the utility was xml file which you had to upload to the website to file the return.

For AY 2021-22 they have switched to JSON but providing the utility only for Windows. The utility for Linux may or may not come.

I downloaded the exe file and installed it using Wine on Ubuntu 20.04 but the installed exe provided blank screen.

Then I added WineHq repository and installed Wine 6.6 (Staging).
The installed utility works till you prepare the return, verify and validate it. On last page when you click to download the output JSON file it says "Download failed".

The utility seems to be built on Electron.

NB: On Windows the utility is working including download of output JSON file.

The download link for income tax website for exe file.

You've made statements. Is there a question that someone might be able to help?
Can't you just print out the paper and mail it in? I know ZERO about India's tax laws.

I wrote "On last page when you click to download the output JSON file it says "Download failed". Question is how to make it work and download the output file which is the purpose of the utility.

I have run the application with the command:
$ wine ITDe-Filing.exe &> mylog.txt

and get the following error in mylog.txt

Code:

The entire text of mylog.txt after removing repeated entries is as follows:
