The new e-filing portal will ease the filing process and enhance end-user experience, said Infosys co-founder and chairman, Nandan Nilekani.

Responding to Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's tweet in which Nilekani was tagged, he said “We have observed some technical issues on day one and are working to resolve them.”

“@Infosys regrets these initial glitches and expects the system to stabilise during the week,” he added.
