New Delhi: The deadline for filing your Income Tax return for Assessment Year 2024-25 is July 31, 2024. Filing your ITR ahead of time can alleviate last-minute stress and expedite the processing of any potential refunds. To ensure timely receipt of your refund, it is crucial to E-verify your return. The duration for receiving your income tax refund varies based on the Income Tax Department’s internal processes, typically ranging from 7 to 120 days, with an average processing time of 90 days post E-verification. However, even after E-verification, refunds may be rejected due to various reasons. Let’s explore further.
