If you have filed your income tax return electronically for the assessment year 2009-10, 2010-11 and 2011-12 and claimed refund, but are yet to send ITR-V forms to Bangalore, there is good news for you.
The authorities have decided to extend the last date for sending this form till March 31.
ITR-V is generated after one files the return electronically. If the person does not have digital signature, then he will have to get the printout of ITR-V, sign and send it to Central Processing Centre in Bangalore. Filing of return is completed only when tax authorities acknowledge the receipt of ITR-V form.
The Income Tax Department has also said that the taxpayer may ascertain whether his ITR-V has been received at the CPC, Bangalore, or not by logging on the website http:/incometaxefiling.gov.in/e-Filing/Services/ITR-V Receipt Status.html by entering PAN number and assessment year or e-filing acknowledgement number.
Alternatively, the status of ITR-V can be ascertained at the above website under ‘Click to view Returns/Forms’ after logging in with registered e-filing account. In case ITR-V has not been received within the prescribed time, status will not be displayed.
The tax authorities also clarified that this is the final opportunity being extended to taxpayers to regularise their returns where refunds continue to remain pending for 2009-10, 2010-11 and 2011-12 for want of valid ITR-V Form.
