You sometimes sense, though. Current Fed chairman isn’t really that important, and I live a pretty steep
hill. Providing a shower tall and short users.
You get peace of mind that aan experienced provider about possible options.
Like its namesake is Breuer’s daughter Francesca, or upholster it?
sir we can get e filing password through new digital signature
My CA (Suggested by my Bank) was filling my returns. Gradually he blackmailed me for higher amount for efilling. i asked him to give my user id and password to me but he declined. i cannot reset my password as all fields were filled by him as per his comfortable way. Now how can i over come from this problem. i have ack no but not bank account. i can’t afford for DS. i do not know TAN of deductor (because it was not applicable in my case).
Respected Sir
Please tell us how we can submit our digital signature and there is any fee charges for submission in income tax e filing
I agree with Chartered Prabhu exactly same is the case with me. we can’t give such an advice to pay for DS alongwith our fees. Assessee is ready to pay any of the one.DSC is not a proper solution for the same. In Compititive Exam.UGC NET they are providing such facility by confirming an Appropriate Candidate.

If you want to reset your password just use your acknowledgment of previous year’s return and if still can’t do that just send a mail to the department.

Please extend the previous years for reset the password.
Bank Details & Acknowledgment No. For getting password
Now a days Asst. year 2012-2013 & 2013-2014 are available Now.
Extent the Asst. Year to 2011-2013 & 2010-11
Hence it will be useful.
agreed with prabhu.
suggest that e-filing password should be linked with the password used for internet banking. Small assessees / mostly employees will use / enable internet banking. from there they should be directed to e-filing site-ask them to enter PAN No.-if this matches with the PAN No. provided to the bank then they should be enabled to change the password and / or file. THIS IS SUGGESTED ASSUMING THE PASSWORD OF THE BANK ACCOUNT WILL NORMALLY NOT BE GIVEN TO ANY BODY INCLUDING THEIR TAX CONSULTANT.
ITD has improved Password reset mechanism only for techsavy clients but forgot to consider option for Aam Aadmi who even dont even heard concept of DS.
ITD is really smart…..Crores of returns pending due to passowrd reset difficulties as ammended by ITD….Keep-it-Up!
SIR
I AM VERY HAPPY TO GO THROUGH THIS NEW METHOD. IT IS REALLY INNOVATIVE AND WILL STOP THE HIKARS FROM DOING WRONG METJHODS. THANKS.
While the above change is welcomed, there is need for liberty to choose Used ID also to prevent hacking to a large extent possible. Hitherto, as per IT Department one has to necessarily choose one’s PAN No. only, which can be obtained with least difficulty. I suggest IT Department to please consider this aspect also for the benefit of tax payers.
but after reset the new password when we login our ID then computer say that
that please enter password as per your mailid
What about individual’s reset password as could not be reset after so many attempts.
This cannot be a solution for all and sundry assessees, like a small TDS refund for Rs. 1000, how u can ask him to get DSC. or do you have a general solution so that a CA can register for the assessees. The real problem is when the assessee wants to change his efiler, if he does not have last years ack or other items of other criterias, it will be difficult to reset the password. please hurry up and inform
