I am a non-resident Indian (NRI) for tax purposes and I own one property each in Singapore and Coimbatore. I file ITR-1 return annually. Since I own only one property in India, can I continue to file ITR-1?

Please note that ITR-1 cannot be filed by non-residents. NRIs usually file their tax under ITR-2. However, the government is yet to notify ITR-2 form for the current assessment year 2020-21; it has only notified ITR-1 and ITR-4. Any changes can only be known once the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) releases all the tax filing forms. While filing the ITR, you can declare both the properties owned by you.
