ITR showing processing in few return page from second stage from last 3 years

If your Income Tax Return (ITR) on the tax portal still shows 'under processing' from the second stage for the last three years, despite receiving no notices, it can be confusing. Generally, if no communication is received from the department and only the preceding year's return should be pending, past returns are considered processed. This status might indicate a delay or an administrative issue rather than an incomplete assessment.
