TaxBuddy Reviews & Ratings

4.6/5

“Free Plan Great, But Paid Plans Make Sense”

TaxBuddy’s free version worked well for my basic ITR. But for notifications and tax planning advice, I upgraded. The total cost is reasonable, but if I go solo, the free tier is tempting.

Pros : Free basic filing, paid options include expert review

Cons : Paying for notice help and advisory adds up

Switched from : TaxCloud

Reason to switch : Chose TaxBuddy for ease and support, even with some added fees.

4.5/5

“Smooth Multi-Device Filing”

I started filing on the app, finished it on my laptop—seamless sync. Occasionally I have to hunt for the same option because the layouts vary slightly, but the syncing saved me time.

Pros : Syncs between mobile and web, continue filing on any device

Cons : Sometimes browser version and app layouts differ

Switched from : ClearTax GST

Reason to switch : Preferred the multi-device flexibility over ClearTax’s web-only approach.

4.5/5

“Affordable for Freelancers—Smart Tax Planning”

TaxBuddy helped me navigate freelance income and GST easily. Their recommendations for deductions under Section 80C were spot-on. The pricing tiers took me a moment to understand, but I’m happy with the services.

Pros : Personalized tax-saving suggestions, GST filing support

Cons : Pricing plans can be a bit confusing

Switched from : CompuTax

Reason to switch : Moved for more tailored advice over CompuTax generic support.

4.5/5

“Investment Suggestions Helped Max Out Savings”

I switched from a friend’s CA to TaxBuddy for investment guidance. Their AI suggested optimizing under 80C and linking investments to tax returns. It’s not elaborate like a wealth manager, but super convenient.

Pros : Personalized investment tax tips via app

Cons : Suggestions basic compared to wealth advisors

Switched from : Stacos

Reason to switch : Wanted tech-driven planning and integration in-app.

4.3/5

“Instant Help from CAs—Life Saver!”

After using Tax2Win and ClearTax, I moved to TaxBuddy for its live chat. I got my queries resolved in real time during GST filing. It isn't 24/7, but during working hours it’s reliable.

Pros : Live chat with experts, quick answers

Cons : No 24/7 support—so late-night help isn’t always available

Switched from : Taxraahi ITR

Reason to switch : Preferred TaxBuddy’s real-time support over Tax2Win’s delayed responses.

4.3/5

“Super-Fast Free Plan—But Upgrades Cost Extra”

I used TaxBuddy’s free ITR-1 plan this year. It auto-filled my income via PAN and walked me through step-by-step. It was done in under 20 minutes. If I had investments, I’d need to upgrade, but it's great for simple tax returns.

Pros : Free basic ITR-1, seamless PAN auto-fill, intuitive UX

Cons : Advanced features require paid upgrades

Switched from : Winman CA-ERP

Reason to switch : Needed a more user-friendly, guided experience than the official site.

4.3/5

“Hassle-Free ITR Filing with Expert Help”

I switched from ClearTax to TaxBuddy last year, and filing ITR became effortless. My CA walked me through every step via video call, and I barely had to lift a finger. I did experience a small wait around the deadline, but the process felt smooth overall.

Pros : Professional CAs, minimal effort on my end, fast turnaround

Cons : Slight delay during peak filings

Switched from : ClearTax Income Tax

Reason to switch : Moved due to better personal guidance and pricing than ClearTax.

4.3/5

“Real Reddit Love—but Mixed Feelings”

Redditors rave about TaxBuddy’s affordability and reliability—many noted flat discounts and hassle-free filing. But some on MouthShut complain about delays in notice responses and tracking PF withdrawals. Overall, I’ve had smooth filings, but I’ve heard their support response can vary.

Pros : Affordable, CA support, speedy service

Cons : Some users report customer delays or notice issues

Switched from : Smart Gst

Reason to switch : I chose TaxBuddy for pricing and digital ease, even if occasional hiccups occur.

4.2/5

“Notice Management Is Super Useful”

I had an Income Tax notice this year, and TaxBuddy guided me professionally through the response. It cost a bit extra, but their help made the process painless. Worth every rupee.

Pros : CA assistance for IT notices, GST queries

Cons : Additional charges for notice support

Switched from : DAVO

Reason to switch : DAVO was not as good as TaxBuddy.

4.2/5

“Data Privacy Feels Solid”

I trust that my tax and investment info stays secure in TaxBuddy’s vault. During heavy filing days, the app stutters a bit, but no data issues have occurred.

Pros : Secure data vault, encrypted info

Cons : Occasional app glitches during peak use

Switched from : ClearTax Income Tax

Reason to switch : Preferred TaxBuddy’s strong emphasis on data security.
