WHEN I ASKED HIM THE PASSWORD HE SAYS HE HIMSELF DOESNOT KNOE SINCE THE INCOME TAX PERSONNEL HAS IT AND HE HAS'NT DIVULGED IT. IS HE CORRECT IN WITHHOLDING THE PASSWORD? HOW CAN I GET MY PASSWORD?

No one has the right to hold your password.Furthur you can reset your password if you forgot it.I wonder how your Auditor has E-Filed your income tax return without Pasword.

you can use the forget password utility on the income tax efiling site.

Choose the option to one (using your Efiling acknowledgement no and bank account no) to reset your password.

Go to www.incometaxindia.gov.in

in login credentials click to forget details - nw u r required to put your PAN after entering ur PAN click to "GO"

After this three options will be avilable to you -

Enter Secret Question & Answer
Enter e-filing acknowledgement No & bank Account No. as per AY 11-12
Enter PAN Details

U might not know secret ques n ans in first one

In PAN details PAssword will be sent to mail ID registered

In second option u will get an option to change your password here itself. So go by second option and reset ur password.

i agree with siddharth mehra.

u have to give the bank account number which was given while e-filling for the A.Y 2011-12

in this method the new password will not sent to e-mail ID. while exercising the option itself u have to give the new password
