Its link of this facility has been activated on the e-filing portal of the department &ndashhttps://incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in.
Key Points
The facility will be used for online redressal of taxpayers’ grievances related to refunds, filing of e-returns, Tax Deducted at Source (TDS), PAN issues, and those pertaining to their Assessing Officer (AO).
It was launched as part of CBDT’s initiative to reduce instances of harassment of the public when it comes to complaints related to the I-T department.
Using this facility, taxpayers can register their complaints through their personal computer systems.
