About Lagaan
Making Tax Filing Simple, Rewarding & Human
💡 Why We Exist
We started Lagaan with one clear goal:
👉 To help salaried Indians file their ITR-1 confidently—without the stress, jargon, or high professional fees.
Millions of hardworking Indians dread tax season—not because they don't want to file, but because they don't know how to or whom to trust.
Traditional systems often feel complicated. Many feel stuck paying more than they should or rely on informal advice.
So we asked:
•What if filing your ITR felt as easy as ordering chai online?
•What if you could earn for spreading financial awareness?
•What if we brought back trust and pride into paying tax?
🙌 What We Do
Lagaan is a referral-only, invite-first tax filing platform built for salaried individuals.
We connect you with trusted tax experts who file your return with care, while keeping you in full control of your process.
But we don't stop there — we reward you too.
🛠 Our platform helps you:
