Manual return are Not accepted in cases where Refund is Due, You have to compulsorily e-file such cases. This is been confirmed at Local IT office. Please Wait for the Notice and upload thereafter.

I repeat:: You can file return for AY 2015-16 (as for refund case), after getting permission from Jt CIT of your area, by filling request to condon the delay in filling the return u/s. 119(2)(b). Once the permission received, you can follow the next step of online filling.
