The Income Tax Department has launched an “Arrear Demand Verification Portal at https://incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in/ which can be accessed by the assessees with their respective user-id. This portal provides various options in the assessee’s dashboard for settling/modifying the outstanding demand against the assessee’s name.

Since a substantial portion of the work of the assessees is handled by our members, we are well equipped to identify the problem areas or issues in the facility made available on the said portal. The Income- tax department has also sought our feedback on the facility provided in the said portal. Accordingly, members are requested to send their feedback or suggestions, highlighting, in particular, any technical or procedural issues being faced by them or their clients with regard to the said facility, so that the same may be communicated to the department for early resolution.

Members may send their feedback/ suggestions at
