1. I have e-Filed my Income Tax Return but not received my refund till now.
Answer: If you have not received refund till date, it could be due to the following reasons:
1. Your Income Tax Return has not been processed yet. Once the return is processed you may receive a Refund (if determined). To check the status of your e-Filed IT Return, LOGIN and GO TO ‘My Account’ → ‘My Returns/Forms’.
2. Your Income Tax Return has been processed but no refund is determined.
3. Your Income Tax Return has been processed, a refund has been determined, but the Cheque/ ECS credit could not reach you. This could be because of wrong address, not being available at home (door locked), wrong Bank Account number for ECS credit. To check if your Refund has returned back to us, LOGIN and GO TO ‘My Account’ → ‘My Returns/Forms’ and check the status.
2. I checked the status of my IT Return and it is displayed as ‘Refund Returned’. How can I apply for it again?
Answer: LOGIN and GO TO ‘My Account’ → ‘Refund Re-issue request’. Select the mode of re- receiving refund- ECS or Cheque, Provide Bank Account number (if changed) and Provide Address details.
3. My Bank Account Number has changed. I want to change the Bank Account Number which I mentioned in my Income Tax Return.
Answer: You can only change your Bank Account Number if you had a refund failure i.e your IT Return is processed and a refund is generated for you but you did not receive it.
If you wish to change the Bank Account Number for Refund failure case, then LOGIN and GO TO ‘My Account’ → ‘Refund re-issue request’. Select the mode through which you wish to receive the refund- ECS or Cheque. Entr the new Bank Account Number and provide address details. Submit the request. Once the request is submitted, your Bank Account Number is updated with us.

Select the mode through which you wish to receive the refund- ECS or Cheque. Provide the new Bank Account Number (if to be changed) and provide the new Address. Submit the request.

Refund intimation u/s 143(1) received followed by another intimation Refund failed as pan name is not matching with account name. Refund reissue request changing to another bank was made, which was approved. So far refund is not credited to my account. In fact name in pan and account is matching and I have been receiving refunds for the last four or five years. Why now delay.

Dear Sir,

I have not received my refund and received an email from income tax department that the refund failed and to submit the new request for refund reissue but while I tried to raise refund reissue request, I am shown that no refund failures. So I am unable to raise refund reissue request. Please suggest
Refund REISSUE is accepted.
What are the next procedures at CPC to effect bank transfer?

My refund amount is less than 50,000 Rs, but CPC has kept on issuing cheque through speed post to my old address, though i have updated my contact details and opted for credit to my bank account.
Hi Sameer, I am going through the same situation as yours. I have updated my contact details in their website. Now if I raise re-issue request, do you think it’ll pick from the website?
Certain important facts should be known to all. Firstly, if the refund amount is less than Rs 50,000 and the Assessee has intimated bank acct details, only then direct credit is resorted to by CPC. If the refund amount is more than 50,000/-, even if the bank acct details are mentioned in the ITR, CPC will not credit the refund directly, but send it in form of cheque by SPEED POST. God forbid, if you have changes accommodation / address, you are in for a long haul. I suffered in this case. Inspite of giving the changed address a number of times, CPC (thru SBI) continued sending refund cheque by SPEED POST on old address. Further, the Dept of Post doesn’t update movement status of SPEED POST Article real time. Twice I was left ‘one step behind’. finally, I could track for one whole night and got hold of my old post office, sat through their SPEED POST sorting drill and rescued my cheque, thanks to few good men still left in Postal Dept. So be very careful, when refund is more than Rs 50,000. But, just want to know, why shouldn’t this too not be directly credited? Can CPC give a reasonable reply?
