How to check Income Tax Refund: The deadline for filing Income Tax Return (ITR) for the assessment year 2021-22 (AY 21-22) is already over. According to government data, this time around 6.25 crore taxpayers have filed ITR.
Out of these, more than 4.5 crore returns have been processed and income tax refunds have been issued. However, still many taxpayers have not been able to get income tax refund. Let us know how to check the status of refund and what are the reasons for the delay.
Refund gets stuck due to wrong bank account
A major reason in cases of refund getting stuck is the mistake in the bank account details. If you have entered your account details incorrectly while filling the form, then your refund may get stuck due to this.
In such a situation, you will have to correct the details of the account on the site of the Income Tax Department. It is also necessary to link the bank account with the PAN card.
Apart from this, the refund is also delayed due to the requirement of some additional documents. The Income Tax Department sometimes demands certain documents while processing returns.
