Missed verifying your Income Tax Return (ITR) within the 30-day deadline? Don't fret! If a genuine reason caused this delay, you can file a condonation delay request on the e-filing income tax portal. This guide provides a step-by-step process to help you navigate this crucial task, ensuring your ITR remains valid and your tax filing process is complete.
Here's the Process of Filing Condonation Delay Request:
Step 1: Log in to your account on the new income tax portal.
Step 2: On your Dashboard, under the Services Tab, select 'Condonation Request'.
Step 3: On the Condonation Request page, you need to select the type of condonation request you want to proceed with. Currently, the income tax department shows only one option: Delay in submission of ITR-V. Select it and click on 'Continue'.
Step 4: On the Delay in submission of ITR-V page, click 'Create Condonation Request'.
Step 5: On the Select ITR page, select the record for which you want to raise a condonation request for delay in ITR-V submission and click 'Continue'.
Step 6: On the Provide reason for delay page, select the reason for your delay and click 'Submit'.
After you complete these steps, you will see a success message along with a Transaction ID. You should note this Transaction ID for future reference. You will also receive a confirmation message on the email ID and mobile number registered with the e-Filing portal.
