Filing Returns on the new Portal

In the Portal the bank details are validated, I had prevalidated the account and has been receiving refund too .

While filing returns in the utility it states not prevalidated.

Do I need to prevalidated again? Please share your thoughts.

Quick Summary
Users are encountering issues with the new tax portal, particularly with bank account pre-validation when filing returns. Despite accounts being pre-validated and receiving refunds, the portal utility sometimes incorrectly states they are not validated. There's a consensus that these are likely technical glitches during the portal's initial phase. While some suggest waiting a few days for stabilisation, others recommend trying to re-validate through internet banking if available, as other methods may be slow or unsuccessful. Users also report delays in returns reflecting on the portal after e-verification and other general glitches.

Probably there could be technical glitches during the initial phase of deployment. As Nandan Nilekani has already said that the streamlining would take a week, I think it would be better to wait for few days, if possible.

Alternatively, if you prefer, you may pre-validate the account once again.

Many thanks for your quick response I rather wait as revalidation could cause further delay.
I think it is a technical glitch. Try again after some time
Thanks Sourav,
Your welcome

Do not  pre-validate your account again from the new portal. My requests are still hanging on there without any result for last 4 - 5 days. They neither fail nor succeed. If you really want to prevalidate your account better try to login from within Internet Banking if supported by your bank.

I have also faced the same issue. I have one validated account and others are pending validation. However in the ITR utility it warns me that ac is not validated even though it is,  on the portal.

I think they should have released the portal as Beta Version allowing users to dry run and report issues. Right now there are infinite glitches and I doubt except speed anything will get fixed.

One week is already gone and each click is taking over 25 minutes. Don't know if it's right but I plan to raise grievance on the portal eventually stating each and every glitch that I have noticed.

Regards.

I think it's a glitch which should get corrected soon. I spoke to the call centre agent. She said prevalidation if already done then there is no need to do the same agin while filing return. I had submitted grievance in the old portal, it's not visible in the new one. I resubmitted in the new portal, it disappeared after few days. She said the portal has not stabilised, asked me w wait till today. Revalidation takes ten to fourteen days, defeats the very purpose of reducing time for processing and refund.

Thanks

Thanks for the update!           

Dear Friends, Please let me know whether Income Tax e-filing website is working today ??

Thank you...

It may be expected to run from today

I have not tried since yesterday.

Today i have filled details of itr.4 of one assessee, everything sucessfully filled & validation sucessful, but while proceed for verification in any of 3 mode. there is one mode i.e e-verify latter within 120 days of submission, i click on this option an error message appears" something went wrong" and unable to generate acknowledgement.

 

Plz suggest me in this regard.

Did you revalidate bank details again, in my case the account is validated and is shown as validated in the portal. while filing returns it states not validated.

The fastest way to revalidate your bank account is to login to efiling portal from within the Internet Banking facility (If provided by your bank). All other methods do not work. If you can login to efiling from within the Internet Banking your bank a/c will get validated immediately or will be rejected if there's some mismatch.
