Refund of ITR

Save Share

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

A taxpayer submitted ITR 1 for AY 20-21, but their refund hasn't been credited due to entering an incorrect 16-digit bank account number instead of the correct 15 digits. While the Income Tax portal shows the refund as credited, the money hasn't appeared in their account. Solutions include pre-validating the bank account, visiting the Income Tax Officer (ITO) with relevant documents, or submitting a refund re-issue request online.

04 January 2021 Sir, I have submitted ITR 1 for AY 20-21. ITR Processed and AO is received through mail. but refund is not credited to my account. I found that have entered 1 digit extra in my account )i.e. my acount is in IDBI Bank having 15 digits account no. but I entered 16 digits. When I saw service request in Income tax portal it shows refund credited.
Now my question "IDBI Account number consists 15 digits but I entered 16 digits how it is credited."
Is there any other option to get back refund or I may write refund request.

04 January 2021 You can resolve your problem with the following options:
1. You can "Prevalidate Your Bank Account" via Income Tax official website.
2. You can resolve the matter by visiting ITO with copies of the acknowledgment of your return and the bank statement with the account details.
