The objective of this revamped website is to serve as a comprehensive hub of tax-related information and resources. It offers convenient access to a wide range of Direct Tax laws, as well as various Allied Acts, Rules, Income Tax Circulars, and Notifications.

Reportedly, all these resources are thoughtfully cross-referenced and hyperlinked to facilitate easy navigation. One of the highlighted features is the ‘Taxpayer Services Module,’ which includes a suite of tax tools designed to assist taxpayers in efficiently filing their income tax returns.

To ensure that visitors to the website can easily familiarise themselves with the new enhancements, the platform offers guided virtual tours and clear indicators for the added buttons.

The upgraded functionalities aim to enable users to compare different Acts, Sections, Rules, and Tax treaties seamlessly. Furthermore, all the relevant content on the site is now labeled with specific Income Tax sections, streamlining navigation for users.

An innovative dynamic due date alerts feature has been implemented, providing reverse countdowns, tooltips, and direct links to relevant portals. This feature is intended to simplify compliance for taxpayers.
