Hello..

I need help!!!

I have one client who is a senior citizen. He is having only interest income.He has not filed his returns earlier,but wants to file this year.

My problem is.. His PAN is already been registered but he doesnt have the Password.When I asked him he said he doesnt even know who registered the same. When I give the option forgot password it asked for secret question ,but the client has no idea regarding this.

I tried to recover the passord through mail.But the reply came that "The recovered password will be sent to the registered email id only" My client doesnt have even email id. He doesnt have idea that who registered his PAN

So,how should I viiew his FORM 26 AS ?

I dont have Digital Signature Certificate..Can TRP have Digital signature Certificate? If yes,what is the procedure and how much is the charges?

Can I file his returns if I get my digital Signature Certificate without my Client's ID and Password?

Please help me in this regard.Its very urgent.

I think the client should get a digital certificate.. I have not tried it as yet( to recover password in this way) but caclub members have many times suggested this option.

Process for getting password at email ID other than the one registered with Department :

Send documents by courier/ reg post to:

DIT (S)- II,

A R A Center, E-2,

Assessee has to submit the following documents to reset the password.

FOR INDIVIDUAL:

1. Copy of the PAN card.

2. Address proof

FOR OTHER ASSESSEE

1. Copy of the PAN card of the Company/Trust/Firm/HUF etc.

2. Copy of Proof of the date of incorporation.

3. Copy of the PAN card of the principal contact.

4. Copy of the one more identity proof issued by the Government Agency like Passport/Driving Lincence/Voter ID card/Aadhar card etc.

5. Authorisation letter issued using the in letter head of the Company/Trust/Firm/HUF etc.(having the address telephone etc)

After verifying the credentials, password will be sent to the new e-mail id.

Can a TRP get a digital signature certificate for filing ITR?

Can I use the same digital signature certificate to file many ITRs?

No. Your digital signature can't be used to file returns of your clients.

I faced a similar problem just recently.

It's actually pretty simple. Avtar Singh mentioned a rather difficult and long procedure.

I've copy pasted the below from www.incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in

Note : If you're not able to reset the password with any of the three options above, please send an email to - validate @ incometaxindia.gov.in with the following details
