ITR not processed yet? Here are various reason for same pointed out by Income tax department

As we know only few days are left for filing of any kind of Income tax return for FY 2019-20 i.e. belated return or revised return.

However many people who have already filed their income tax return but their Income tax return has not processed are worried about the same and below are few pointers suggested by CBDT as to why the Income tax return has not processed yet:

First of all our observation is that CBDT is first processing Income tax return for salaried employee and people doing business under presumptive taxation i.e. CBDT is first processing ITR 1 and 4 and hence if you have filed any income tax return other than that it might take time.

Now let’s look at the reasons provided by CBDT/ Income tax department:

1. Resolve your outstanding tax demand to enable quick processing of your ITR.

2. Check if your ITR has any of the frequently noticed errors and file a revised return before the last date.

3. Make sure you check and resolve your Tax Credit mismatch.

4. Have you e-verified your ITR.

These are few reasons suggested by CBDT for not processing your Income tax return.
