The last date for filing income tax return for the financial year 2021-22 or assessment year 2022-23 was July 31, 2022. Have a special reason. First of all, you need to know about these reasons and understand why there is a delay in getting the refund. Let us tell you about these reasons.
1-ITR process done or not
First of all leave all the work and check whether your ITR has been processed or not. You will get ITR refund only when it is processed. After the ITR is processed, the tax department will confirm to you that your refund has been done, only then money will come into your account. If the tax department finds that no refund has been made in your name, then you will not get any refund. You should check the refund status once the ITR is processed and the refund is confirmed.
2-Pre-validation of bank account
If there is any problem in the pre-validation of the bank account whose information is given in the ITR, then you will not get the refund money. Refund can also be withheld if your PAN is not linked to your bank account. Hence it is necessary to check whether the PAN is linked to the bank account or not and whether the account is pre-validated or not.
To do the pre-validation check, you will need to login to the tax e-filing portal, for which you will need to provide your user ID and password. After login, go to My Profile and select My Bank Account. On the screen, you will get the information about the pre-validation of the bank account. If refund money has come in this account, then its information will also be found here.
3- outstanding demand
If any of your demands are pending from the previous year, there may be a delay in getting the income tax refund. If any outstanding demand is pending, the same will be adjusted against your refund first. This information will be given to you through an intimation notice. Once the ITR is processed, check the mail if any notice has come. As soon as you get the notice, you will know why the refund has been delayed.
