Refund restricted status - bank account

Hello everyone,

I have noticed that my bank account has been marked as "refund restricted" in the income tax site.
I would like to know the reasons behind the issue & steps to be taken to resolve it.

Thanks in advance.

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses the 'refund restricted' status on income tax bank accounts. The primary cause identified is a mismatch between the name on your bank account and your PAN data, often due to incomplete surnames in bank records. The suggested solution involves rectifying your name in the bank records (using Aadhaar for full name verification) and then revalidating your bank account on the Income Tax portal.

Pls upload the page

IS it SBI account??

 

Solution to this problem is Only bank detail Re-validation. this problem has been seen in many cases
This is new update in this AY and till now no solution
I had solved this error in many clients cases using bank details revalidation

Bank Account Revalidation failed in such cases.....

Reason For Restricted Refund -Click the 3 dots beside acct # & see View Bank details it will show reason as “Refund can be credited only up to <50L> due to name mismatch between Bank account  & PAN. 50 L does not mean 50 lakhs, but it must be 50 thousand.

Restricted Refund shows when our name in bank is not matching with Pan Data base. Generally our surname is not fully shown in bank. Get name rectified in bank by giving Aadhaar which shows our full name. After rectification in bank Revalidate the account in Income Tax site.

Sir On Income Tax Portal after clicking on 3 dots not showing any reason as mentioned by u for Restricted Refund. Also name appearing on cheque is same as PAN-AADHAAR. still not revalidated.

After clicking 3 dots you have to see view bank details.Simply clicking 3 dots you won't see any reason.To resolve Restricted refund issue our name in bank should match with name PAN database.

Yes Yes sir....after clicking on 3 dots and viewing bank details nothing specified
