CBDT Refund Delay: The Short & Concise Truth
There is no halt on refund processing by CBDT. Only high-risk refund claims are being held for verification, while smaller refunds are being processed normally. Most legitimate refunds are expected to be released by December.
The rumor mill is buzzing: Has the CBDT stopped ITR processing and ended the "100% Refund" era? The short answer is NO.
What's Really Happening?
The CBDT has not stopped processing; it has delayed refunds in specific, high-risk cases to curb fraudulent claims.
High-Value Claims Under Scrutiny
ITRs with suspiciously large or 'wrongful deductions' (like excessive claims under 80C or HRA) have been 'red-flagged' for deep scrutiny. The goal is to ensure only genuine and correct refunds are issued.
Small Refunds are Still Fast
Processing for ITRs with low-value refunds is continuing without significant delays.
When Will the Refund Come?
The CBDT expects most legitimate and pending refunds to be cleared by December. If your claim is valid, you will get your money it will just take a bit longer due to the enhanced compliance check.
Is Your Refund Stuck? Check These 4 Errors!
Beyond CBDT scrutiny, your refund might be delayed due to your own mistakes:
- Bank Account Not Pre-validated.
- PAN-Aadhaar Not Linked.
- Incorrect/Inactive Bank Details.
- Arithmetic Errors or 'Defective Return' status.
Conclusion
The department is tightening tax compliance, not halting service. If your documentation is accurate and your claim is genuine, your refund is safe!
