E filing status

If you have paid more tax than your actual tax liability for a financial year, then you are eligible to get income tax refundafter filing the income tax return (ITR) for that year.

However, you will only receive this income tax refund after the tax department processes your ITRand confirms the same via an intimation notice

This intimation notice is sent to you under section 143 (1) of the Income-tax Act, 1961.

This year returns have to be filed for FY 2022-23 (AY 2023-24) for which the last date is currently July 31, 2023

The income tax refund is processed by State Bank of India(SBI) and is directly credited to the bank account nominated by the taxpayer in his/her ITR at the time of filing it.

Thus, it is important to ensure that you have mentioned the correct bank account number and IFS code. Further, the bank account must be pre-validated on the government's new income tax e-filing portal and PAN must be linked with the bank account.
