Generally when refund is received after intimation

If you've received an intimation about your IT refund, you might be wondering about the typical waiting period. While the maximum statutory period can be up to nine months, current processing times are often much quicker, averaging around 45 days. In some cases, refunds can be received within just 3-4 days, especially if all your documentation is in order. If you haven't received your refund after 90 days, you may consider raising a grievance with the CPC IT Department.
