ITR Filing: The time limit for getting a refund may vary in each case. In some cases, the refund is processed within a few days, while in some cases it takes weeks.
ITR Filing: The process of filing income tax returns has started. This time its deadline has been extended from July 31 to September 15, 2025. However, if you miss filing ITR by the last date, then you can file it till December 31, 2025 with penalty and interest.
Returns are being filed in a hurry
Taxpayers across the country are filing their ITR. According to the Income Tax Department, till July 1, more than 75,18,450 ITR returns have been filed and 71,11,836 returns have also been verified. After filing income tax returns, taxpayers eagerly wait for the refund. Now the question arises that in how many days does the refund money come into the account?
In how many days does the refund come?
Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman has already said that after the automation and process improvement of the Income Tax Department, income tax refund is now being issued within 10 days. However, the time limit for getting the refund may vary in each case. In some cases, the refund is processed within a few days, while in some cases it takes weeks.
What are the reasons for the delay in getting refund?
- Refund will not be available without e-verification of ITR.
- If PAN is not linked to Aadhaar, then there can be a delay in refund.
- If the TDS details do not match with Form 26AS (Tax Credit Statement), then the return can also get stuck because it is re-verified.
- Any error in the bank statement such as wrong account number or something wrong with the IFSC code can also cause the return to be held.
- Not responding to the notice or email sent by the department also takes more time to process the return.
- That is why just filing the ITR is not enough, but its e-verification is also necessary. This can be done easily with the OTP received on Aadhaar, net banking and other digital methods.
