Missed ITR Deadline? Still Claim Your Tax Refund Via Section 154
- •The revised ITR deadline for FY 2024-25 (AY 2025-26) was December 31st.
- •Taxpayers who missed the deadline can still claim a tax refund by filing a 'Rectification Request' under Section 154.
- •This option is for correcting errors like missed deductions or incorrect calculations after the original ITR processing.
- •File the rectification request through the Income Tax e-filing portal under the 'Services' tab, verifying with Aadhaar or PAN.
- •Check refund status on the portal; delayed refunds accrue 0.5% monthly interest, and bank details can be updated for re-issue.
Why It Matters: Even after missing the ITR deadline, taxpayers can claim refunds by filing a rectification request under Section 154.
