How a referral link works
A referral link is just a normal link to ClearTax with a code attached that tells ClearTax you came from us. You file exactly as you normally would. Nothing about your return, your data, or your filing process changes. The only difference is that the referral is recorded.
Our referral link is: https://cleartax.in/filing/?referral_code=REF720FDAF9
Does it cost you anything?
No. Filing through a referral link does not add any charge to you. You pay ClearTax’s normal price for whatever plan you choose, exactly as you would without the link. The referral reward, if any, comes from ClearTax’s own programme, not from your pocket.
We want to be clear about this because it is the most common worry. A referral link is not a surcharge. Your price is the same either way.
What benefits may apply
Referral programmes can offer benefits to the person referred, the referrer, or both, and the specifics change over time. Rather than promise a figure we cannot guarantee, here is the honest position:
- Check the current offer on ClearTax when you file. Any reward or benefit for you as a new user is defined by ClearTax’s programme at that moment, not by us.
- We may receive a referral reward if you file through our link. That is disclosed openly.
- We do not claim to give you a discount unless ClearTax’s programme actually provides one at the time you file. If it does, you will see it on ClearTax.
If a benefit for you exists, it will show up on the ClearTax side. We would rather under-promise here than overstate something that can change.
How to file through a referral link
- Click the referral link: File your ITR on ClearTax.
- Sign in or create your ClearTax account.
- Choose the plan that matches your return. Not sure which? See our ClearTax plans guide.
- File as normal.
For a step-by-step on using the code specifically, see our ClearTax referral code guide.
Our honest position
We use a referral link, and we tell you so plainly. But the recommendation comes first, not the link. We only point you to ClearTax where it genuinely fits your return. If your return is simple, we tell you to file free on the government portal. If you are a heavy trader, we point you to Quicko. The referral only appears where ClearTax is honestly the right call.
That is the deal: honest advice, an open disclosure, and no cost to you.
Ready and ClearTax fits your situation? File your ITR on ClearTax. We may earn a referral reward at no extra cost to you.
