05 February 2009 GIR is abbreviated form for General Index Registrar No

ECO-RETURN is friendly to the environment as it is paper-free and gas-free. E-filed to IRS and electronically sent to you so absolutely no paper is used.

07 February 2009 GENERAL INDEX REG. NO IS PREVIOUSLY USED BY THE INCOME TAX DEPT BEFORE THE PAN WAS EMERGED... IT IS COMBINATION OF ASSEESSEE'S FIRST LETTER AND THE SERIAL NO. GIR IS FOLLOWED BY THE ITO JURISTICTION...
eg. M 5678/I [4] / MDS / 2003-04

HOPE NOW GOT AN IDEA...
