a) Updated Returns (ITR-U):
Taxpayers can correct previously filed ITRs using ITR-U within 48 months post-assessment year as permitted by Finance Act, 2025.
Penalties scale with the delay: 60% extra tax if filing in 3rd year, 70% in the 4th year.
ITR-U utilities for AY 2021-22 and 2022-23 (ITR-1 & ITR-2) are now live on the portal.

b) Reflexive Delays in Refunds:
Increased automation and stringent cross-verification with data from Form 26AS, AIS, and TIS can delay refunds.
Outstanding tax demands or pending assessments may result in refund adjustments or hold-ups.
However, interest on delayed refunds is payable under Section 244A, starting early in the assessment year for timely filers or from date of filing otherwise.
