Refund is delayed because of bank not being validated yet?!

Hello All,

I need your help with my ITR filing.

31/08/2019 - I did the ITR filing and e-verification with refund.

05/10/2019 - The return status updated as 'Refund is determined after partial adjustment against the outstanding tax demand' in income tax portal.

10/10/2019 - I received an intimation email with title 'Intimation U/S 143(1) for PAN xxxxxxxx AY:2019-20'. The attachment included income tax calculation and there was some minor adjustments to my refund.

31/10/2019 - As the refund was not credited yet, I checked my profile and found that the 'pre-validate bank account' section had no bank accounts added! So, I added my bank details.

It's been more than couple of months since I did the ITR filing and over one month since I updated the bank details, but still I haven't received my refund. I think there's a problem with my bank details getting validated. I know they are validated instantly, but in my case I have no idea why the bank details aren't validated yet and if the refund is delayed because of the same. This is what I get when I go the bank details section on the income tax portal - https://www.screencast.com/t/DwywlslAJs

 

Can someone please tell me what should I do next? Thank you so much for the help!
