Income tax refund: When taxpayers file income tax returns, after that they eagerly wait for refund. The question remains in his mind that by when the refund amount will be received. Actually, the date on which e-verification is done by taxpayers starts after the refund process starts. It is generally seen that after e-verification, the refund may take from about two weeks to two months to come.

Why is there a delay in refund?
If any kind of mistakes in the refund are made from the taxpayers, then they may have to file revised returns. According to the guidelines of the Income Tax Department, the refund process starts as soon as the ITR is filed. In the event of e-verification, refund is found quickly. However, in some cases the refund gets stuck. Most of the cases are those where e-verification has not been done within 30 days of filing ITR or bank details have been incorrectly inserted.

Therefore, it is important that ITR should be filled correctly and e-verification should be done within 30 days. Return can be invalid if not done. The Income Tax Department starts the process of refund only after e-verification.

What to do if the refund does not come?

• Those who file ITR-1 usually get refunds within 10 to 15 days.

• Those who file ITR-2 may take 20 to 45 days.

• Those who file ITR-3 may take about two months to get refund.
