Refund Late Hone Ke 7 Common Kaaran
| Kaaran | Kya karein |
|---|---|
| ITR e-verify nahi hui | 30 din ke andar Aadhaar OTP/net banking se e-verify karein — bina verification ke return process hi nahi hoti |
| Bank account pre-validated nahi | Portal par Profile → My Bank Account mein account validate karein aur 'nominate for refund' karein |
| Naam PAN aur bank mein alag | Bank se KYC update karwayein taaki naam PAN se match kare |
| PAN inoperative hai | PAN-Aadhaar link karein; link hone tak refund nahi aata aur us period ka interest bhi nahi milta |
| TDS mismatch (26AS/AIS) | Deductor se TDS return correct karwayein ya ITR revise karein |
| Purani demand pending hai | Department refund ko demand ke against adjust kar sakta hai (Section 245 ki intimation aati hai) — response dein |
| Return scrutiny mein hai | Notice ka jawab time par dein — scrutiny poori hone tak refund ruk sakta hai |
Refund failed dikh raha hai?
Agar status 'Refund Failed' hai, to pehle bank account validate karein, phir Services → Refund Reissue Request se nayi request daalein. Ek hi account ko baar-baar try karne se pehle wajah (closed account, IFSC change, naam mismatch) theek karna zaroori hai.
Refund Par Interest
Agar refund late aata hai to department aapko us par interest deta hai — aam taur par 0.5% per month (6% saalana), jo 1 April se refund ki date tak (time par ITR file karne walon ke liye) calculate hota hai. Ye interest agle saal ki ITR mein 'Income from Other Sources' mein taxable hai — ise dikhana na bhoolein, AIS mein dikhta hai.
