22 May 2013 My refund for the Assesment years 2008-09 and 2009-10 are still pending. On contacting the Income tax office, I observed that wrong PAN was quoted by me at the time of filing the return.However the TDS certifcates and advances tax payments were made under the correct PAN.

IT officer is telling me that since the wrong PAN is mentioned in the return, refund cant be used as their database shows that return is yet to be filed.

What are the options for me. Is tit possible for me to get the refund. Please reply

26 May 2013 You may file a letter with the AO by mentioning the fact of quoting wrong PAN No in the ITR along with the copy of Acknowledgement and request him to issue the refund. In case AO does not entertain your request contact PRO in the IT Department.
