Once we file our Income Tax Return, there is always a question in the mind of assessee how to open ITR V Acknowledgement and how to E-verify it? Hence today I am covering here these two very important aspects of return filing.

How to open ITR V Acknowledgment?

Please note that you will receive your ITRV/ITR ACK PDF file in a zip format. Please note that the ITRV/ITR ACK PDF document is password protected to ensure it is accessed by the appropriate user. The password is a combination of the pan (in lower case) and the date of birth in the format dd mm yyyy. For example, 1) if the pan is AAAAA0000A and the date of birth is 10-Jan-2008, then the password will be aaaaa0000a10012008 Please note that you will need Adobe Acrobat reader 8.0 or forward to open the password protected PDF file. If you do not have Adobe Acrobat Reader, please visit the following link to download it: www.adobe.com/products/ acrobat/readstep2.html In case you are unable to open the document, please contact Efiling Income Tax Administrator at ask@incometaxindia.gov.in providing the document along with pan number and assessment year.

How to E-verify Income Tax Return filed online?

It can be verified using Electronic Verification Code or Aadhaar OTP or DSC. The details are as under:

Option 1: Electronic verification code

Electronic verification code can be generated using the following options.

  • Login to eFiling through NetBanking:

  • EVC through Bank ATM

Taxpayer can generate an EVC through ATM and the EVC can be used to verify the listed items. “PIN FOR INCOME TAX FILING” option can be used in the ATM to generate the EVC.

Option 2: Aadhaar OTP

To generate an EVC through Aadhaar is done in two stages.

Firstly, the taxpayer has to link PAN with Aadhaar through the e-filing portal.

The taxpayer’s PAN credentials such as Name, Date of Birth and Gender will be matched with the Aadhaar credentials. On matching, the PAN will be linked to Aadhaar.

Secondly, taxpayer has to opt for Aadhaar EVC. A One Time Password (OTP) will be generated by the Aadhaar authorities and sent to the Aadhaar registered mobile of the taxpayer. Using this OTP, the taxpayer would be able to verify the uploaded return.

    Hi,
    If any of you have received the ITR-V Ack and its says PDF file is damaged, can check acknowledgement of receipt by logging in to incometaxindiaefiling account. Goto My Account -> E-filing Process Status, fill the details and view the acknowledgement receipt.

  2. Prince Bathwal says:

    While opening protected pdf acknowledgement it requires a password which is a combination of pan and date of birth..but whatif i font know tha date of birth bcozDOB mentioned in PAN is not as per the records with IT Department and i dont know actual DOB registered with them…How shall i know my DOB Registered with so that i can open my acknowledgement

  3. Yuva says:

    I have same query as already raised by Sumit Roy,
    I am unable to understand what I should fill in the blank space in the last line of the declaration: “I further declare that I am making this return in my capacity as…………………………and I am also competent to make this return and verify it”. Since my return is filed under Status: INDIVIDUAL and is a personal Income Tax return, should I just write INDIVIDUAL in the blank space?

  4. Raina says:

    While trying to complete ITR-1, I am repeatedly getting a message that I should check Form 16 or AS26. There is hardly any time left for me to first register for viewing these forms and then submitting the return.

    Is this message coming because the server, which matches actual TDS with the figures mentioned in ITR-1, is overloaded?

  5. Omkar says:

    To get copy of ITR V again
    1. Login to income tax site
    2. Goto My Account
    3. Goto My Returns
    4. Enter correct assessment year
    5. Click on submit
    6. Close information box that pops up
    7. Under “Details Page” column, there is link “Click here to view details”
    8. This link will give ITR V

  12. SUMIT ROY says:

    I have submitted my IT Return for AY 2012-13 using e-filing procedure and have also received the ITR-V acknowledgement file via e-mail. Since no digital signature was used, I now have to send a signed copy of ITR-V to Income Tax Department, CPC, Bengaluru.
    I am unable to understand what I should fill in the blank space in the last line of the declaration: “I further declare that I am making this return in my capacity as…………………………and I am also competent to make this return and verify it”. Since my return is filed under Status: INDIVIDUAL and is a personal Income Tax return, should I just write INDIVIDUAL in the blank space?

  20. Rashmi says:

    Hi ABDUL RASHID,

    The password would be

    your pan number + your date of birth.

    For instance if your pan number is: AACCB2952P
    and you Date of Birth is : 20 Dec 1984

    then your password will be aaccb2952p20121984
