I-T Refunds: Taxpayers To Receive Pending Refunds For FY2020-21 By April 30
ABP NewsThe Income Tax Department has issued a circular assuring taxpayers awaiting their tax refunds for the financial year 2020-21 that they will receive their payments by April 30, 2024. Upon filing a return request at the Centralised Processing Centre within the specified timeframe, taxpayers receive an intimation notice under Section 143 of the Income-tax Act, 1961, indicating the successful processing of their Income Tax Return. Moreover, taxpayers have until March 31, 2024, to submit revised income tax returns for the financial year 2020-21. The Finance Act of 2022 introduced by the Centre allows taxpayers who missed filing their return or failed to report any income to file an updated ITR within 24 months from the end of the relevant assessment year, subject to certain conditions.
