Income tax return processing and ITR refunds start for AY 2025-26: Here’s how to check status
The ITR filing process is in full swing, with nearly 25 lakh income tax returns already filed and about 23 lakh verified. The most important development is that the Income Tax Department has started processing returns, as reflected on the tax portal, which shows that some ITRs have already been processed for the current assessment year. This means taxpayers with refunds due will start receiving them soon.
This year, the return filing started relatively late. The main reasons for this were the late release of ITR forms, technical changes in the e-filing utility, and time taken to update tax deduction (TDS) data.
