| 3 | description: Final orchestrator skill that assembles the complete India filing package for India-resident self-employed individuals and professionals. Consumes outputs from all India content skills (india-gst for GSTR-3B/GSTR-1, in-income-tax for ITR-3/ITR-4, in-advance-tax for quarterly instalments, in-tds-freelance for TDS reporting) to produce a single unified reviewer package containing every worksheet, every form, every brief section, all cross-skill reconciliations, and the final action list with payment instructions, filing instructions, and next-year planning. This is the capstone skill that runs last and produces the final deliverable. MUST be loaded alongside all India content skills listed above. India full-year residents only. Self-employed individuals and professionals only. |

| 9 | ## CRITICAL EXECUTION DIRECTIVE -- READ FIRST |
| 10 | |
| 11 | **When this skill is invoked, you have already passed through intake. The user has consented to the full workflow. Execute all steps without pausing for permission.** |
| 12 | |
| 13 | Specifically: |
| 14 | |
| 15 | - **Do NOT ask the user "how deep do you want me to go"** or "do you want the full package" or any variant. The user asked for their tax returns. They want their tax returns. Produce them. |
| 16 | - **Do NOT announce how many tokens or tool calls this will take.** Execute. |
| 17 | - **Do NOT ask which deliverables to prioritise.** Produce all deliverables listed in Section 4. If you run out of context mid-execution, finish the computation work first (numbers, positions, flags) then produce whatever formatted outputs you can, and at the very end state clearly which deliverables were not produced and why. |
| 18 | - **Do NOT re-validate scope that intake already validated.** If `in-freelance-intake` produced an intake package, trust it. You can cross-check specific numbers during reconciliation but do not re-interrogate the user about residency, business structure, or anything else intake already captured. |
| 19 | - **Do NOT pause between content skills to check in.** Run them in dependency order (Section 2) without prose status updates between each one. A single status message at the end is fine. |
| 20 | - **Self-checks are targets, not blockers.** If a self-check fails, note it in the reviewer brief's open flags section and continue. Do NOT halt the entire workflow because one self-check had an ambiguous answer. |
| 21 | - **Primary source citations go in the final reviewer brief, not in intermediate computation steps.** |
| 22 | |
| 23 | **The user has already been told (by the intake skill) that the final package requires CA signoff before filing. State it once in the final output and move on.** |
| 24 | |
| 25 | **Failure mode to avoid:** The skill halts mid-execution and asks the user a meta-question about workflow pacing. If you feel the urge to ask "how should I proceed," the correct action is to pick the most defensible path and proceed, flagging the decision in the reviewer brief so the reviewer can challenge it. |

| 29 | ## What this file is |
| 30 | |
| 31 | The final capstone skill for India self-employed returns. Every India content skill feeds into this one. The output is the complete reviewer package that a Chartered Accountant can review, sign off on, and deliver to the client along with filing instructions. |
| 32 | |
| 33 | This skill coordinates execution of the content skills, verifies cross-skill consistency, and assembles the final deliverable. |
| 34 | |
| 35 | --- |
| 36 | |
| 37 | ## Section 1 -- Scope |
| 38 | |
| 39 | Produces the complete India filing package for: |
| 40 | - Full-year Indian residents |
| 41 | - Self-employed individuals and professionals (sole proprietors) |
| 42 | - Financial year 2025-26 (Assessment year 2026-27) |
| 43 | - Filing GST returns (GSTR-3B + GSTR-1 if registered), ITR-3 or ITR-4, advance tax reconciliation, TDS credit reconciliation |
| 44 | |
| 45 | --- |
| 46 | |
| 47 | ## Section 2 -- Execution order and dependency chain |
| 48 | |
| 49 | The skill enforces the following execution order: |
| 50 | |
| 51 | 1. **`india-gst`** -- GSTR-3B + GSTR-1 reconciliation (Q2 skill) |
| 52 | - Runs first because GST turnover figures feed into the ITR |
| 53 | - Reconcile GSTR-3B monthly/quarterly summaries with books |
| 54 | - Verify GSTR-1 outward supply details match invoices |
| 55 | - Reconcile ITC claimed with GSTR-2B auto-populated data |
| 56 | - Output: GST turnover, output tax, ITC utilised, cash GST paid, reverse charge |
| 57 | |
| 58 | 2. **`in-income-tax`** -- ITR-3 or ITR-4 return (Q2 skill) |
| 59 | - Depends on GST output: gross receipts must match GST turnover (ex-GST for regular taxpayer) |
| 60 | - For ITR-4 (presumptive 44ADA): 50% deemed profit on gross receipts, no expense schedule |
| 61 | - For ITR-3 (actual profit): full P&L with expense deductions, depreciation schedule, balance sheet |
| 62 | - Output: total income, tax liability at applicable slab rates, regime comparison if requested |
| 63 | |
| 64 | 3. **`in-advance-tax`** -- Quarterly advance tax reconciliation (Q2 skill) |
| 65 | - Depends on ITR: final tax liability determines whether advance tax was sufficient |
| 66 | - Reconcile advance tax paid (from Form 26AS) against liability |
| 67 | - Compute s.234B interest (default on advance tax shortfall -- if paid < 90% of assessed tax) |
| 68 | - Compute s.234C interest (deferment -- quarterly shortfall in instalments: 15%/45%/75%/100%) |
| 69 | - Output: advance tax schedule, shortfall computation, interest liability |
| 70 | |
| 71 | 4. **`in-tds-freelance`** -- TDS credit reconciliation (Q4 stub, flag) |
| 72 | - Depends on ITR: TDS credits offset final tax liability |
| 73 | - Reconcile Form 26AS TDS entries with income declared in ITR |
| 74 | - Flag mismatches (TDS claimed but income not shown, or income shown but TDS not reflected) |
| 75 | - **Status check:** in-tds-freelance is currently a Q4 stub. If the stub has substantive content, use it. If it is still a placeholder, compute TDS reconciliation using Form 26AS data from intake and flag in the reviewer brief that the dedicated skill was not available. |
| 76 | - Output: TDS credit summary, mismatches, Form 26AS vs ITR reconciliation |
| 77 | |
| 78 | If any upstream content skill fails to produce validated output, the assembly skill notes the failure in the reviewer brief and continues with available data rather than halting entirely. |
| 79 | |
| 80 | --- |
| 81 | |
| 82 | ## Section 3 -- Cross-skill reconciliation |
| 83 | |
| 84 | ### Cross-check 1: GST turnover matches ITR gross receipts |
| 85 | |
| 86 | | GST Output | ITR Input | Rule | |
| 87 | |-----------|-----------|------| |
| 88 | | GSTR-3B aggregate turnover (ex-GST) | ITR gross receipts from profession/business | Must match within INR 100 | |
| 89 | | GSTR-1 outward supplies | ITR Schedule BP / presumptive turnover | Turnover is ex-GST for regular registrants | |
| 90 | | Export of services (zero-rated) | ITR foreign income | Included in gross receipts, zero-rated for GST | |
| 91 | |
| 92 | **If mismatch:** Flag for reviewer. Common causes: timing differences (invoice vs receipt basis), RCM supplies, credit notes, advances received but service not rendered. |
| 93 | |
| 94 | ### Cross-check 2: If 44ADA presumptive -- 50% deemed profit, no further expense deduction allowed |
| 95 | |
| 96 | | Rule | Application | |
| 97 | |------|------------| |
| 98 | | Deemed profit = 50% of gross receipts | No deduction for actual expenses against professional income | |
| 99 | | Depreciation | NOT claimable under presumptive scheme | |
| 100 | | Partner remuneration / interest | Not applicable (sole proprietor) | |
| 101 | | Deductions under Ch VI-A (80C, 80D) | Still allowed (old regime) or standard deduction (new regime) -- these are from total income, not business income | |
| 102 | |
| 103 | **If violation:** If the computation claims actual expenses AND declares 50% deemed profit, check fails. It is one or the other. |
| 104 | |
| 105 | ### Cross-check 3: Advance tax paid + TDS credits against final tax liability |
| 106 | |
| 107 | | Component | Source | Rule | |
| 108 | |-----------|--------|------| |
| 109 | | Advance tax paid | Form 26AS Part C / challans | Sum of all advance tax payments during FY | |
| 110 | | TDS credits | Form 26AS Part A / TDS certificates | Sum of all TDS deducted and deposited | |
| 111 | | Self-assessment tax (if any) | Challan 280 | Paid before filing ITR | |
| 112 | | Total tax liability | ITR computation | Tax on total income + surcharge + cess | |
| 113 | | Tax payable / refund | Liability minus (advance tax + TDS + self-assessment) | Positive = payable; negative = refund | |
| 114 | |
| 115 | **If advance tax + TDS < 90% of assessed tax:** s.234B interest applies at 1% per month (simple) from April of AY to date of filing or date of assessment. |
| 116 | |
| 117 | **If quarterly advance tax instalments fell short:** s.234C interest applies at 1% per month for 3 months per shortfall quarter. |
| 118 | |
| 119 | | Quarter | Due date | Cumulative % required | |
| 120 | |---------|----------|-----------------------| |
| 121 | | Q1 | 15 June | 15% | |
| 122 | | Q2 | 15 September | 45% | |
| 123 | | Q3 | 15 December | 75% | |
| 124 | | Q4 | 15 March | 100% | |
| 125 | |
| 126 | For 44ADA presumptive: entire advance tax can be paid by 15 March (single instalment). s.234C does not apply if 100% paid by 15 March. |
| 127 | |
| 128 | ### Cross-check 4: Form 26AS TDS vs ITR income declaration |
| 129 | |
| 130 | | Check | Rule | |
| 131 | |-------|------| |
| 132 | | Every TDS entry in 26AS Part A | Corresponding income must appear in ITR | |
| 133 | | TDS credit claimed in ITR | Must match 26AS (or AIS) within INR 1 | |
| 134 | | Mismatch entries | Flag: either TDS not deposited by deductor, or income not declared | |
| 135 | | TCS entries (26AS Part C) | If applicable, credit against tax liability | |
| 136 | |
| 137 | **If mismatch:** Common causes: deductor filed TDS return late, wrong PAN quoted, income accounted in different FY. Flag for reviewer with specific entries. |
| 138 | |

| 289 | |
| 290 | ## Section 5 -- Refusals |
| 291 | |
| 292 | **R-IN-1 -- Upstream skill did not run.** Name the specific skill. Note: this is a warning, not a hard stop. Continue with available data and flag the gap. |
| 293 | |
| 294 | **R-IN-2 -- Upstream self-check failed.** Name the specific check and note it in the reviewer brief. Continue. |
| 295 | |
| 296 | **R-IN-3 -- Cross-skill reconciliation failed.** Name the specific reconciliation and describe the discrepancy. Flag for reviewer but continue. |
| 297 | |
| 298 | **R-IN-4 -- Intake incomplete.** Specific missing intake items prevent computation. List what is missing and ask the user for the specific data point. |
| 299 | |
| 300 | **R-IN-5 -- Out-of-scope item discovered during assembly.** E.g., capital gains requiring Schedule CG, rental income requiring Schedule HP, foreign assets requiring Schedule FA, or partnership income. Flag and exclude from computation. |
| 301 | |
| 302 | --- |
| 303 | |
| 304 | ## Section 6 -- Self-checks |
| 305 | |
| 306 | **Check IN-A1 -- All upstream skills executed.** india-gst, in-income-tax, in-advance-tax all produced output. in-tds-freelance produced output or was computed from Form 26AS data. |
| 307 | |
| 308 | **Check IN-A2 -- GST turnover matches ITR gross receipts.** Within INR 100 tolerance. |
| 309 | |
| 310 | **Check IN-A3 -- If 44ADA: 50% deemed profit, no expense deductions claimed.** Deemed profit = exactly 50% of gross receipts (or higher if voluntarily declared higher). |
| 311 | |
| 312 | **Check IN-A4 -- Advance tax + TDS reconciled against final liability.** Total credits (advance tax + TDS + self-assessment tax) match the payment/refund position. |
| 313 | |
| 314 | **Check IN-A5 -- s.234B interest computed correctly.** If advance tax paid < 90% of assessed tax, 1% simple interest per month from April AY to date of payment/assessment. |
| 315 | |
| 316 | **Check IN-A6 -- s.234C interest computed correctly.** Quarterly shortfall interest at 1% for 3 months per deficient quarter. |
| 317 | |
| 318 | **Check IN-A7 -- Form 26AS TDS matches ITR.** Every TDS entry in 26AS has corresponding income in ITR. Credits claimed match 26AS amounts. |
| 319 | |
| 320 | **Check IN-A8 -- Tax regime correctly applied.** New regime: s.115BAC rates, no Ch VI-A deductions (except NPS 80CCD(2)). Old regime: regular slab rates, all deductions claimed. |
| 321 | |
| 322 | **Check IN-A9 -- s.87A rebate applied if eligible.** New regime: if total income <= INR 12,00,000 (after standard deduction), rebate up to INR 25,000. |
| 323 | |
| 324 | **Check IN-A10 -- Surcharge and cess correctly computed.** Surcharge applicable if total income > INR 50 lakh (10%/15%/25% tiers). Cess = 4% on tax + surcharge. |
| 325 | |
| 326 | **Check IN-A11 -- Filing calendar is complete.** All deadlines for ITR, GST, advance tax, and TDS are listed with specific dates and amounts. |
| 327 | |
| 328 | **Check IN-A12 -- Reviewer brief contains legislation citations.** Every position taken references the specific section of the Income-tax Act 1961, CGST Act 2017, or relevant rule. |
| 329 | |
| 330 | --- |
| 331 | |
| 332 | ## Section 7 -- Output files |
| 333 | |
| 334 | The final output is **three files**: |
| 335 | |
| 336 | 1. **`[client_slug]_2025-26_india_master.xlsx`** -- Single master workbook containing every worksheet and computation. Sheets include: Cover, GST Reconciliation (GSTR-3B vs books), ITR Computation (ITR-3 or ITR-4), Depreciation Schedule (if ITR-3), Advance Tax Reconciliation, TDS Credit Reconciliation, s.234B/234C Interest, Cross-Check Summary. Use live formulas where possible -- e.g., ITR gross receipts cell references the GST turnover cell; advance tax shortfall references the ITR final liability. Verify no `#REF!` errors. Verify computed values match within INR 1 before shipping. |
| 337 | |
| 338 | 2. **`reviewer_brief.md`** -- Single markdown file covering all sections from Section 4 above: executive summary, GST returns, ITR, advance tax, TDS, cross-skill reconciliation, flags, positions, planning notes. |

| 340 | 3. **`client_action_list.md`** -- Single markdown file with step-by-step actions: immediate filings and payments, advance tax quarterly calendar for FY 2026-27, GST filing calendar, ongoing compliance reminders. |
| 341 | |
| 342 | **If execution runs out of context mid-build:** produce whatever is complete, then state at the end which of the three files were not produced or are partial. |
| 343 | |
| 344 | **All files are placed in `/mnt/user-data/outputs/` and presented to the user via the `present_files` tool at the end.** |

| 361 | ## Section 9 -- Known gaps |
| 362 | |
| 363 | 1. PDF form filling is not automated. The reviewer uses the worksheets to fill official ITR forms on incometax.gov.in. |
| 364 | 2. E-filing is handled by the reviewer via the income tax portal, not by this skill. |
| 365 | 3. Payment execution is the client's responsibility; the skill only provides instructions and amounts. |
| 366 | 4. Tax audit (Form 3CB-3CD) preparation is not automated -- if audit is required, the skill flags it and the CA prepares the audit report separately. |
| 367 | 5. in-tds-freelance is a Q4 stub. Until it is fleshed out, TDS reconciliation is computed using Form 26AS data from intake. This is a redundancy, not a gap -- the data source (Form 26AS) is the same. |
| 368 | 6. Multi-year depreciation tracking assumes the prior year schedule is provided. If not, only current-year acquisitions are depreciated. |
| 369 | 7. Capital gains computation (Schedule CG) is out of scope. |
| 370 | 8. Foreign assets reporting (Schedule FA) is out of scope. |
| 371 | 9. Rental income (Schedule HP) is out of scope beyond noting it as other income. |
| 372 | 10. The package is complete only for FY 2025-26; FY 2026-27 appears only as prospective planning. |
| 373 | 11. State-level professional tax varies by state and is treated as a known deduction from intake, not independently computed. |
| 374 | |
| 375 | ### Change log |
| 376 | - **v0.1 (April 2026):** Initial draft. Modelled on mt-return-assembly v0.1 adapted for India jurisdiction with four content skills (GST, ITR, advance tax, TDS). |
