To track the progress of the income tax return on the I-T department's e-filing system, taxpayers can take the following steps:
Log in to your account on the official website incometax.gov.in using your PAN/Aadhaar Card number as the User ID and password.
Once you've logged in, search for the 'e-file' option on the site.
Select 'Income Tax Returns' from the 'e-file' menu, followed by 'View Filed Returns.'
Check the most recent ITR submitted on your behalf. The most recent ITR submitted for FY 2023-24 will be for the AY 2024-24.
Select the 'View Details' option. Later, it will provide the status of the ITR filed, as well as other facts.
The ITR will be issued only after the processing of the ITR form by the I-T Department, which will later send an intimation notice to individuals as a confirmation.
The refund for Income Tax will be deposited directly into the bank accounts of the eligible taxpayers, depending on the designated bank account they have mentioned during the time of ITR filing.
