Income Tax Refund: Know How To Check Tax Refund Status — A Step-By-Step Guide
Incase you have paid more tax than your actual tax liability in a financial year, you can claim refund by filing returns
New Delhi: If you are eligible for an income tax refund, then it’s important to file for an income tax return (ITR) for that particular year. It will be processed once the tax department confirms the refund status through a notice after which you will receive this income tax refund.
It is important to note that you received the intimation notice under section 143 (1) of the Income-tax Act, 1961. The last extended date to file returns for FY 2020-21 is currently December 31, 2021.
The deadline was extended for most individuals from the earlier deadline of September 30, 2021, to December 31, 2021.
