Steps to check Income tax refund status

Check the status of your tax refund to get an idea about when you will get it if you are sure that you haven’t made any mistake in filing ITR form.

With the help of 2 websites you can check refund status

1. You can check it on the income tax department’s e-filing portal

Using your Permanent Account Number (PAN) as your user ID and password under the ‘registered user’ section, you can log into your account on the e-filing portal (www.incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in).

Once you are logged in, go to the ‘View e-Filed Returns/Forms’ section.

Select income tax returns and the relevant assessment year.

A new page ‘My Return’ will open and show the status of your filed return such as ITR filed, verified, ITR processing, issue of refund or status of refund.

Under the ‘status’ menu, you can check the mode of payment, refund amount, date of clearance and so on.
