by SAG Infotech · Jaipur, Rajasthan · Since 1999
ITR preparation and e-filing with AIS import.
Gen Income Tax (GenIT) is the income tax return software in SAG Infotech's Genius range, built in Jaipur by a firm that began in 1999 and incorporated as SAG Infotech Private Limited in 2010. It is aimed at tax practitioners and CA offices that prepare many returns each season. The product picks the right form from ITR-1 to ITR-7 based on income heads, generates the JSON for upload, and files through the Income Tax Department's web services, then pulls back the ITR-V.
Its strength is breadth on the computation side. GenIT imports pre-filled JSON, Form 26AS, AIS and TIS, works out interest under sections 234A, 234B and 234C, handles MAT and AMT, arrears relief through Form 10E and carry-forward of losses, and lets you pay challans 280, 281 and 282. It also covers PAN applications on Form 49A and corrections, which saves a separate tool for small practices.
The main limitation is that it is a desktop product first. SAG positions local storage as more secure than cloud, but it means backups and copies on extra office PCs are your responsibility. The product page gives no cloud pricing or system requirements, and the interface and help material feel dated next to newer web tools.
Pricing is a one-time installation fee plus a yearly updation fee for each new assessment year. The product page lists installation at Rs 7,000 and updation at Rs 4,500. The price calculator instead shows two rates per item, Rs 4,500 and Rs 2,000 (apparently non-associate and associate rates), with 18% GST added on top, so confirm the exact quote with sales. A trial of 10 active hours is offered and SAG's team installs the demo for you. Most practices buy it as part of the Genius bundle with Gen TDS and Gen Balance Sheet.

SAG Infotech's product page lists Gen Income Tax installation at Rs 7,000 and the yearly updation at Rs 4,500. Its online price calculator shows two lower rates for each item, Rs 4,500 and Rs 2,000, which appear to be non-associate and associate prices, with 18% GST added. Confirm the current figure with SAG sales before paying.
The Gen Income Tax product page does not state whether its prices include GST. SAG Infotech's online price calculator adds GST at 18% on top of the base installation and updation prices. Ask for a GST invoice in your firm's name when you buy, so the input tax credit is available to your practice.
Yes. SAG Infotech offers a Gen Income Tax trial of 10 active hours, and its team will install a demo on your computer at a time you book through the Request for Demo page. Ten hours is enough to prepare a few sample returns and check AIS import before buying a licence.
Gen Income Tax is mainly a desktop program installed on your office computer, and SAG Infotech says the desktop version is more secure than cloud. No cloud pricing is published on the product page. If you need it on more than one office computer, ask SAG sales for the cost of additional network or laptop copies.
Gen Income Tax can be used on more than one computer in a practice, but the product page does not publish the charges for extra network or laptop copies. Ask SAG Infotech sales for a written quote covering additional copies and their yearly updation before you buy, since these add to the long-term cost.
Gen Income Tax covers ITR-1 through ITR-7 and selects the correct form automatically from the income sources entered. It imports pre-filled JSON plus Form 26AS, AIS and TIS, generates the upload JSON, files through the Income Tax Department web services and downloads the ITR-V acknowledgement afterwards.
Gen Income Tax competes with desktop tax suites such as Winman and Computax used by CA offices. Its advantages are a low one-time installation fee, AIS and TIS import, and bundling with SAG's Gen TDS and Gen Balance Sheet. Compare current yearly updation fees and LAN charges, since those decide long-term cost.
Gen Income Tax is made by SAG Infotech, a Jaipur company that began as a proprietorship in 1999 and became SAG Infotech Private Limited in May 2010. SAG says it has more than 50,000 customers across India and also sells Gen GST, Gen TDS, Gen Payroll and Gen CompLaw software.
SAG Infotech supports Gen Income Tax by phone on 0141-4072000 (support extension 6) and by email at info@saginfotech.com. Office hours are 10 AM to 7 PM Monday to Friday and 10 AM to 5 PM on Saturday, so plan around these times during the July filing rush.
Because Gen Income Tax is a desktop product, client tax data is stored on your own computers rather than on SAG Infotech's servers. That gives you control but also responsibility. Use the built-in backup and restore feature regularly and keep an off-site copy to avoid losing returns.
