No Income Tax Refunds for AY 2025-26 until Old ITRs are reviewed by Government
The Income Tax Department has received over 75 lakh income tax return for the AY 2025-26. And more than 71 lakh have been successfully verified out of these. Even after this huge number, refunds on the newly filed ITRs are being delayed. Those taxpayers who were expecting quick refunds are now facing delays. The Income Tax Department has decided to check all the pending assessments of taxpayers and old returns first before issuing any refunds. This step will prevent any false refund claims.
