21 August 2026 The Income Tax Department has a statutory period of 9 months from the end of the financial year to process returns under Section 143(1), making generic automated timeline replies standard practice. To address the delay, confirm that the ITR is e-verified with matching AIS/26AS data, clear any prior outstanding demands, contact the CPC helpline, or escalate the issue via the CPGRAMS portal (pgportal.gov.in). Any eventual refund will include interest at 0.5% per month under Section 244A.
