Understanding Tax Refunds: JJ Tax made it easy

Handling tax refunds can seem overwhelming, but having a clear grasp of the process can make it straightforward. This newsletter aims to demystify tax refunds by covering key aspects: eligibility criteria, claiming procedures and tracking your refund status.

What is a Tax Refund?

A tax refund represents the amount returned to taxpayers who have overpaid their taxes over the fiscal year. This situation arises when the total tax deducted or paid exceeds the actual tax liability determined based on their income.

In India, tax payments are made through TDS (Tax Deducted at Source), advance tax, or self-assessment tax. When the total tax paid or deducted surpasses your tax liability as calculated in your Income Tax Return (ITR), the excess amount is refunded. This mechanism ensures taxpayers are reimbursed for any overpayments.

Who is Eligible for a Tax Refund?

Eligibility for a tax refund depends on various factors:

Excess Tax Payments If your TDS or advance tax payments exceed your tax liability, you’re eligible for a refund. This often applies to salaried employees, freelancers, and individuals with taxable investment income.

Claiming Deductions If you claim deductions under sections like 80C, 80D, etc., and these deductions lower your tax liability below the total tax paid, a refund may be due.

Filing an Income Tax Return Only those who file their Income Tax Return can claim a refund. The return must accurately reflect your income, deductions, and tax payments to establish if a refund is warranted.

Losses to Set Off If you have losses from previous years or the current year that can be carried forward and set off against current year income, you might be eligible for a refund if these losses reduce your tax liability.

Who is Not Eligible for a Tax Refund?

Certain situations or individuals may not qualify for a tax refund:

Income Below Taxable Threshold If your total income is below the taxable limit, a refund may not be applicable.

Salary Below Government Criteria Individuals earning below the minimum threshold specified by the Government of India may not qualify for a refund.

No Overpayment If your tax payments match your tax liability or you haven’t overpaid, a refund will not be available.

Non-Filers or Incorrect Filers Those who fail to file their Income Tax Return or file it incorrectly will not be eligible for a refund. Proper filing is essential for initiating the refund process.

Invalid Deductions Claims for deductions that do not meet tax regulations or lack valid documentation may result in a refund rejection.

Incorrect Bank Details If the bank account information provided in your ITR is incorrect or incomplete, the refund may not be processed.

How to Claim Your Tax Refund

Here’s a step-by-step guide to claiming your tax refund:

File Your Income Tax Return (ITR) Access the Income Tax Department’s e-filing portal. Choose the correct ITR form based on your income sources and eligibility. Accurately complete all required details, including income, deductions, and tax payments.

Verify Your ITR Verify your ITR using Aadhaar OTP, net banking, or by sending a signed ITR-V to the Centralised Processing Centre (CPC). Verification must be completed within 120 days of filing your ITR.

ITR Processing The Income Tax Department will process your return, assess your tax liability, and determine the refund amount. This process can take a few weeks to several months.

Refund Issuance After processing, the refund will be credited directly to your bank account. Ensure your bank details are accurate and up-to-date in your ITR.

Update Bank Account Details (if needed) If your bank details change after filing your ITR, promptly update them on the e-filing portal to ensure correct refund crediting.

How to Check Your ITR Refund Status for FY 2024-2025

To check your refund status, follow these steps:

Visit the Income Tax E-Filing Portal Go to the official Income Tax Department e-filing website.

Access the 'Refund Status' Section Navigate to the ‘Refund Status’ page, typically under the ‘Services’ tab or a similar heading.

Enter Required Details Input your PAN (Permanent Account Number) and the assessment year for your filed return.

Review the Status The portal will show the status of your refund, including whether it has been processed, approved, or if further action is needed.

Track Refund Processing Keep an eye on any updates or notifications from the Income Tax Department regarding your refund.

Understanding the tax refund process can simplify the experience. By following these steps and staying informed about your eligibility, you can make sure that you have a smooth process and quickly receipt of any excess tax payments.

KSCAA writes letter to income tax dept about taxpayers being wrongly charged late penalty for ITR filing

Multiple experts have voiced their concerns about the Centralised Processing Centre (CPC) of the income tax department making errors in processing income tax returns (ITR). The Karnataka State Chartered Accountants Association (KSCAA) has sent a representation to the CBDT in this regard. KSCAA's representation says that the CPC has erred in considering the due date for filing ITR and has imposed penalties even for those who filed ITR well within the deadline.

CPC Processing Errors, according to KSCAA

According to the representation by KSCAA (a copy of which was seen by ET Wealth Online) the errors in processing of ITRs noticed by them are as follows:

Old/ New tax regime: Numerous taxpayers have received intimations from CPC erroneously calculating their tax liability under the old tax regime, despite these taxpayers having opted for the new tax regime at time of filing their returns.

Incorrect due date considered: Certain taxpayers, specifically partners of firms liable to tax audit, have filed their income tax returns by the extended due date of November 15, 2024. However, the CPC has issued demand notices to these taxpayers, incorrectly considering the due date as July 31, 2024, and levying late filing fees of Rs 5,000 under Section 234F.

Interest under Section 234A and 234B: Many taxpayers have reported receiving demand notices where the CPC has incorrectly calculated interest under Sections 234A and 234B of the Act, resulting in inflated tax liabilities. Additionally, the absence of a detailed breakdown of the interest calculations in the intimation is creating difficulties for taxpayers to verify and address discrepancies.

Late fees for revised Return under section 234F: In certain cases, taxpayers have received demand notices imposing a late fee of Rs 5,000 under Section 234F on filing of revised returns under section 139(5) of the Act. This is erroneous, as in such cases the original return was filed within the due date specified under Section 139(1) of the Act and accordingly no late fee should be levied for filing a valid revised return.

Proportionate TDS credit allowed: In cases where TDS is deducted on non-income components like GST or other reimbursements, the credit of TDS is not allowed in total, though the assessee has suffered the deduction. This creates an unjust situation where the taxpayer has to forego the TDS credit forever.

Defective ITR Notices issued incorrectly: Classification of Income Head Based on TDS Deduction Section: Certain taxpayers have received defective notices incorrectly suggesting that income should be classified under the head "Profits and Gains from Business and Profession" rather than "Income from Other Sources" solely based on the section under which tax was deducted (such as Sections 194J or 194C of the Act), says the representation.

This treatment of income overlooks the fact that classification of an income item by the deductor cannot override/overshadow the true nature of income as received and recorded by the taxpayer. The representation adds: "Further, such an exercise requires application of mind which is often debatable and outside the domain of the adjustments stipulated under section 143(1). Therefore, such issues cannot be subject matter of automated proceedings by CPC under Section 143(1) of the Act.''

Notices for defective ITRs issued due to incorrect TDS classification in Form 26AS

KSCAA said in its representation:Many taxpayers have received notices for filing defective ITR after filing their Income Tax Return (ITR) in Form ITR-1, where Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on interest income was initially, and erroneously, shown under Sections 194J and 194C in Form 26AS. Subsequently, form 26AS was corrected/ updated to reflect these deductions under the appropriate section for interest for interest income (Section 194A of the Act). Despite this correction, the CPC has issued defective notices, disregarding the updated and accurate classification in Form 26AS at the time of return filing.

Other ITR processing problems faced by taxpayers

ET Wealth Online has spoken with various other chartered accountants (CAs) who related the problems faced by some of the taxpayers whose ITRs the CAs had filed.. Here's what they said:

Chartered Accountant Abhishek Soni, co-founder, Tax2Win said: "We are receiving defective return notices, even though, according to the 26AS and our filed returns, everything appears to be correct. Below are some examples:

Net Income Amount as 0 in 26AS: In some cases, the 26AS reflects both positive and negative values, resulting in a net amount of 0. We have excluded this from our client's ITR. However, we have now received a defective notice from the department stating that you have ignored the income mentioned in the 26AS.

Presumptive Income Cases: We have declared income above the limit specified under the presumptive taxation sections. Despite this, we received a defective notice claiming that we have declared income lower than the prescribed 8% or 50%, as applicable.

Chartered Accountant Divya Jokhakar, partner, B. D. Jokhakar & Co: Some of our clients are partners of firms where tax audit is applicable. So, we noticed that CPC has recently processed ITR of partners of firms which are liable to tax audit, with a late filing penalty of Rs 5000. The due date of such return was November 15, 2024, extended from October 31, 2024. In another case the partners who had losses under certain income heads were barred from carrying forward (the loss) saying it's a belated return. CPC's processing despite filing in time is creating a lot of problems. The taxpayers have to apply for reprocessing and file grievance complaints.

Chartered Accountant Ashish Niraj, partner, A S N & company, says: We filed an income tax return for a taxpayer who was subject to tax audit. So, we had filled a column in the ITR with the appropriate value of an income which is what should have been done as per the law. However, CPC flagged the return and sent a notice saying why we did not declare this income in another column of the ITR instead of the column we used. It was a small dispute, so we did not argue about the logic with CPC and ultimately did whatever CPC asked and the client's ITR got processed.

Sujit Bangar, founder, TaxBuddy says: Several issues reported by KSCAA were also observed in the cases of our clients. Some of the prominent problems as per our client ITR included:

TDS Mismatch for TCS Employees: Many employees from TCS who filed their ITRs received defective notices or demand notices after processing. Initially, these were assumed to be CPC errors, but upon review, it was found that TCS itself had filed incorrect TDS details. TCS acknowledged this issue and informed employees that they had approached the tax department for rectification. Eventually, these errors were corrected, and fresh intimations were issued to the employees, resolving the discrepancies.

Presumptive Income Under Section 44AD: Several ITRs filed under the presumptive taxation scheme (Section 44AD) with income declared at 6% or 8% were flagged with defective notices due to CPC errors during processing. This caused undue panic among taxpayers. As a tax service provider, we actively communicated with our clients to explain the issue and assist in resolving it. However, individuals filing independently or through unregulated channels may have faced significant challenges.

Processing ITRs Under Incorrect Tax Regime: A few cases were observed where ITRs filed under the old tax regime were processed under the default new regime, leading to demand notices. This issue was minor but present. When taxpayers filed revised returns or rectifications, the demand notices were resolved.

Incorrect Interest Under Sections 234A and 234B: Many taxpayers received demand notices with inflated interest amounts under Sections 234A and 234B due to calculation errors by the CPC. The lack of a detailed breakdown in the intimation made it challenging for taxpayers to verify the accuracy of the calculations, further complicating the resolution process.

Carry Forward of Losses with Incorrect Filing Dates:When pre-filled JSON files were downloaded for taxpayers, errors were noted in the carry-forward loss schedules. The filing dates for previous assessment years were incorrectly mentioned, resulting in the non-adjustment of eligible losses during processing. This led to inaccurate demands being raised.

Common ITR processing issue faced by some taxpayers- demand notice for late ITR filing

Both KSCAA and Jokhakar say that their clients had to pay late fees despite filing the ITR on time. "In certain cases, taxpayers have received demand notices imposing a late fee of Rs 5,000 under Section 234F of the Act on filing of revised returns under section 139(5) of the Act. This is erroneous, as in such cases the original return was filed within the due date specified under Section 139(1) of the Act," said KSCAA in its representation.

Jokhakar said: "Some clients of mine who faced this, even got a section 245 notice for adjusting this Rs 5,000 late filing fee with their tax refund due. This happened despite them filing the ITR before the deadline."

"Our representation to the Central Board of Direct Taxes highlights critical systemic issues in income tax return processing that are causing undue hardship to taxpayers and professionals. We are seeking urgent intervention to address defective notices, incorrect tax regime calculations, and processing errors at the Centralized Processing Centre, which are creating unnecessary compliance burdens for professionals and anxieties for taxpayers. Our goal is to work constructively with the tax authorities to ensure a fair, efficient, and taxpayer-friendly system," says Chartered Accountant Vijaykumar M Patel, President, Karnataka State Chartered Accountants Association (KSCAA).

What CPC needs to do, as per KSCAA's representation

In its representation KSCAA suggested the following steps be taken by CPC to solve the above issues:

Review and rectify defective ITR notice issuance

Ensure the classification of income is based on its true nature rather than solely going by the section under which TDS has been deduced by independent third party, to prevent undue misclassification for assessees.

Ensure that updated Form 26AS is considered for processing the income tax return filed by assessee.

TDS credit should be allowed in full especially if it is reflected in Form 26AS. The allowability of the same may be taken up during assessments, etc and not restricted while processing intimation.

Implement enhanced validation checks in CPC processing

KSCAA requested the implementation of stronger validation protocols to prevent processing errors in tax regime selection, due date recognition, and interest calculations. This would include:

Ensuring taxpayers' chosen tax regimes are respected in demand notices, avoiding unnecessary disputes.

Correctly identifying extended due dates in cases of tax audit, particularly for partners in audited firms, to prevent unwarranted demand notices.

Providing detailed breakdowns of interest under Sections 234A and 234B in demand notices, allowing taxpayers to verify calculations and address any discrepancies effectively.

Request that late fees under Section 234F not be imposed on returns filed within the due date under Section 139(1), even if subsequently revised.

Google on How to Deal with UTM Parameters

Are your UTM Parameter URLs indexed by Google? Not sure what is the best solution going forward?

Brace yourselves! Google’s John Mueller talks about the best ways to deal with URLs that include UTM parameters.

Discussion regarding UTM Parameters

On Twitter, a user expressed her concerns with Google Search Console (GSC) showing her a bunch of UTM parameter URLs being indexed by Google. She asked whether Google Analytics(GA) would still track the data if these URL parameters were blocked in robots.txt.

This is the question:

“I have a technical question for you. It seems as though GSC is indexing a bunch of UTM URLs. If we exclude these UTM tails from the robots.txt file, will we still be able to use their tracking data in GA?”

John Mueller affirmed that Google Analytics will be able to track the data. He further went on to emphasize the best way to deal with UTM Parameters.

Here’s what he had to say:

“Sure! GA is based on what users do, and users don’t check the robots.txt (usually :-)). However, you could probably also encourage search to index the preferred URLs by using the rel-canonical and having clean internal linking.”

Make Use of Canonical Tags

Google’s John Mueller suggests using a rel=canonical tag on the pages with UTM parameters.

For example, if your preferred URL is “website.com/seo” and your UTM parameter URL is

“website.com/seo?utm_source=Google&utm_medium=CPC&utm_campaign=Generic&gclid=CjwKCAJwzOqKB”.

The canonical tag on your page with UTM parameters would be as follows:

It makes sense to use the canonical tag because you don’t want multiple versions of the same page competing in Google’s SERP. There’s also the possibility that Google will choose the incorrect URL as the canonical if no canonical tag is defined.

Clean Internal Linking

Using canonical tags alone isn’t enough at times. If there are links in your website that point to the UTM parameter URLs, Google might end up ignoring the canonical tags.

Common Mistakes to Avoid in Your LinkedIn Ad Strategy

Advertising on LinkedIn can increase brand awareness and generate leads, but it takes more than just making ads to be successful. Many companies, particularly startups, make frequent errors that impair their performance. Ad campaign efficacy can be significantly increased by avoiding these mistakes. Here's how.

Not Defining Clear Goals

Lack of clear goals, whether for traffic, leads, or brand awareness, is a common error made in LinkedIn ads. It's challenging to gauge success and optimize your advertisements without clear goals. Working with a LinkedIn advertising firm, you can steer your ad layouts, targeting, and call-to-actions by establishing specific, quantifiable goals that complement your marketing plan.

Overlooking Audience Targeting

One major benefit of LinkedIn is its strong targeting tools, which are often abused by companies that display advertisements to the incorrect demographic. Ad spending is wasted, and conversion rates are low as a result.

A linkedin ads agency can enhance targeting by concentrating on talents, job titles, industries, and organization size. Reaching the appropriate decision-makers and increasing engagement is more likely when targeting is more precise.

Ignoring A/B Testing

By avoiding A/B testing, many advertisers lose out on optimization chances. Testing many ad variants helps in determining the most effective ones. To increase performance and lower CPC, a LinkedIn advertising firm might test formats, images, and calls to action.

Neglecting Mobile Optimization

Since many LinkedIn users access their accounts via mobile devices, neglecting mobile optimization might negatively impact ad performance. Low engagement might result from poorly designed advertisements. Make sure your advertisements have visible calls to action, clear content, and a straightforward layout for mobile devices. For improved mobile performance, a LinkedIn advertising firm can assist with ad optimization.

Using Generic Messaging

Generic messaging may result in low levels of engagement. Users of LinkedIn anticipate useful, pertinent content. Adapt your advertisements to the wants and needs of your target audience. In order to increase relevance and engagement, a LinkedIn advertising firm may assist you in creating tailored messaging that appeals to your target audience.

Setting the Wrong Budget and Bid Strategy

Budgeting incorrectly might restrict access or result in financial waste. In order to improve ROI, a LinkedIn advertising agency may assist you in choosing the best budget and bid strategy (CPC, CPM, or CPL) based on your objectives and audience size.

Failing to Track and Measure Performance

Monitoring metrics such as cost per lead, conversion rate, and CTR is essential. To improve ROI, a LinkedIn advertising firm can help track performance, tweak ads, and make sure they are in line with business objectives.

Not Using Compelling Visuals and CTAs

The success of LinkedIn ads is mostly dependent on their images. High-quality pictures, movies, or infographics increase audience participation. A LinkedIn advertising firm can assist in producing images that complement your message and encourage action.

Conclusion

Campaign success is increased by avoiding typical LinkedIn ad errors and working with a LinkedIn ads firm. To get better outcomes and accomplish your company goals, set clear goals, target the proper audience, optimize creatives, and monitor success.

The Importance of Accuracy in Medical Coding

Accuracy in medical coding is crucial for the healthcare industry. Medical coders play a vital role in translating medical services, procedures, and diagnoses into standardized codes. These codes are essential for billing, insurance claims, and maintaining patient records. Here are several reasons why accuracy in medical coding is so important:

Ensures Proper Reimbursement

Healthcare providers rely on accurate coding to receive proper reimbursement from insurance companies. If codes are incorrect or incomplete, claims may be denied or delayed, affecting the financial health of the medical practice. Accurate coding ensures that providers are paid promptly and correctly for their services.

Supports Quality Patient Care

Accurate medical coding directly impacts patient care. It ensures that patient records are complete and precise, which is essential for ongoing care and treatment. Accurate codes help healthcare providers understand a patient’s medical history, leading to better diagnosis and treatment plans.

Reduces Legal Risks

Inaccurate medical coding can lead to legal issues. Incorrect coding may result in claims of fraud or abuse if it appears that services were billed improperly. Ensuring accuracy in coding helps protect healthcare providers from legal disputes and potential penalties.

Facilitates Health Data Management

Accurate medical coding is essential for managing and analyzing health data. This data is used for various purposes, including public health reporting, research, and policy-making. Reliable data helps in tracking disease trends, evaluating the effectiveness of treatments, and making informed healthcare decisions.

Why A/B Testing Matters: Google Ads Mistakes You Can't Afford to Make

One of the most detrimental Google Ads mistakes you can make is ignoring the power of A/B testing. A/B testing, or split testing, is a method of comparing two versions of an ad to determine which one performs better. By testing variables such as headlines, ad copy, images, and calls to action (CTAs), you can optimize your ads for maximum performance. In this blog, we will delve into the importance of A/B testing, common pitfalls, and strategies to ensure your Google Ads campaigns are as effective as possible.

Understanding A/B Testing in Google Ads

A/B testing is a crucial part of any successful Google Ads strategy. It allows advertisers to make data-driven decisions, ensuring that their ads resonate with their target audience. Here's why A/B testing is indispensable:

Improved Ad Performance: By testing different ad elements, you can identify which combinations work best, leading to higher click-through rates (CTR) and conversion rates.

Increased ROI: Optimized ads perform better, providing a higher return on investment (ROI) by reducing wasted ad spend on ineffective ads.

Enhanced User Experience: Ads that are tailored to user preferences provide a better experience, increasing the likelihood of engagement and conversion.

Common A/B Testing Mistakes in Google Ads

Despite its benefits, many advertisers make critical mistakes when implementing A/B testing. Avoid these common pitfalls to ensure your tests are effective:

Testing Too Many Variables at Once: Testing multiple elements simultaneously can lead to inconclusive results. Focus on one variable at a time to clearly identify what impacts performance.

Running Tests for Too Short a Duration: Short test durations can result in insufficient data. Ensure your tests run long enough to gather statistically significant results, typically at least a few weeks.

Ignoring Statistical Significance: Making decisions based on insufficient data can lead to incorrect conclusions. Use statistical tools to determine the significance of your test results.

Not Segmenting Your Audience: Different audience segments may respond differently to ads. Segment your audience to tailor tests and obtain more accurate insights.

Neglecting Seasonal and Market Changes: External factors such as seasonal trends and market conditions can impact test results. Consider these variables when analyzing your data.

The Cost of Ignoring A/B Testing

Ignoring A/B testing in your Google Ads campaigns can lead to several negative outcomes:

Wasted Ad Spend: Without testing, you may continue to invest in underperforming ads, leading to a wasted budget.

Missed Opportunities: Failing to optimize your ads means missing out on potential conversions and revenue.

Lower Quality Scores: Google rewards relevant and high-performing ads with higher Quality Scores, which can lower your CPC. Ignoring A/B testing can result in lower Quality Scores and higher ad costs.

Competitive Disadvantage: Your competitors are likely optimizing their ads through A/B testing. Ignoring this practice can put you at a competitive disadvantage.

Key Metrics to Track During A/B Testing

To effectively measure the impact of your A/B tests, track these key metrics:

Click-Through Rate (CTR): This metric indicates how many users clicked on your ad compared to how many saw it. A higher CTR suggests that your ad is compelling and relevant to your audience.

Conversion Rate: The percentage of users who completed the desired action, such as making a purchase or filling out a form, after clicking your ad. This is a critical metric for assessing the effectiveness of your ad copy and landing page.

Cost Per Click (CPC): This metric shows how much you’re paying for each click on your ad. Lowering CPC while maintaining high CTR and conversion rates can significantly improve your ROI.

Bounce Rate: The percentage of visitors who leave your landing page without interacting further. A high bounce rate may indicate that your landing page is not relevant or engaging to visitors.

Time on Site: This metric measures how long visitors stay on your landing page. Longer durations typically indicate higher engagement and interest in your content.

Effective A/B Testing Strategies for Google Ads

To avoid the Google Ads mistakes related to A/B testing, implement the following strategies:

Define Clear Objectives: Before starting any test, define what you want to achieve. Whether it’s increasing CTR, lowering cost per click (CPC), or improving conversion rates, having clear goals will guide your testing process.

Focus on High-Impact Elements: Prioritize testing elements that have the greatest potential to impact performance, such as headlines, CTAs, and ad images. For example, according to a study by HubSpot, changing the CTA alone can increase conversion rates by up to 161%.

Use a Control and Variation: Always have a control ad (the original) and a variation (the modified version). This setup allows you to directly compare the performance of the two versions.

Implement Incremental Testing: Start with major elements and gradually move to finer details. For example, test different headlines first, then move on to ad copy, and finally, the images or design.

Analyze and Act on Results: Once you have collected enough data, analyze the results to determine which version performed better. Use these insights to optimize your future ads.

Real-World Examples of Successful A/B Testing

E-commerce Retailer: An online clothing store conducted A/B testing on their ad headlines. By testing variations that included discounts versus those highlighting new arrivals, they found that discount-focused headlines increased CTR by 25%.

Local Service Provider: A plumbing company tested different ad copies to see which resonated more with their audience. The version that emphasized "24/7 Emergency Service" saw a 30% increase in conversions compared to the standard "Reliable Plumbing Services."

B2B Software Company: A software provider tested different landing page designs. The version with customer testimonials and a clear CTA button improved their conversion rate by 20% over the original page.

Advanced A/B Testing Techniques

Multivariate Testing: While A/B testing compares two versions, multivariate testing compares multiple elements simultaneously. This approach can help you understand how different components interact with each other.

Personalization: Tailor your ads to different audience segments based on demographics, behaviour, and interests. Personalized ads can improve relevance and performance.

Dynamic Content: Use dynamic ad content to automatically tailor your ads to individual users based on their past behaviour, preferences, or location. This technique can significantly enhance ad relevance and effectiveness.

Sequential Testing: Conduct a series of A/B tests in succession to continuously refine your ads. For example, start by testing headlines, then move on to ad copy, and finally, test different images or CTAs.

Use AI and Machine Learning: Leverage AI-powered tools to automate and optimize your A/B testing. These tools can quickly identify winning combinations and provide actionable insights.

Conclusion

Avoiding expensive Google Ads mistakes requires a strategic approach to A/B testing. By setting clear goals, focusing on high-impact elements, and using data to drive decisions, you can optimize your ads for better performance and higher ROI. Remember, A/B testing is an ongoing process that requires continuous optimization and adaptation.

By implementing these smart A/B testing strategies, you can avoid costly Google Ads mistakes and ensure that your advertising dollars are spent effectively, leading to higher ROI and improved campaign performance. Don't overlook the power of A/B testing in your Google Ads strategy—it's a crucial tool for achieving advertising success.

However, if you are still stuck somewhere while doing all of this on your own, do not worry further. ADictive is here to help you take your Google Ads journey to another level.

Is Your TDS Refund Still Pending?

By Wishtree Consultants Pvt Ltd

Name: Wishtree Consultants Pvt Ltd

Why Is Your TDS Refund Still Pending?

Claiming a TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) refund should be straightforward, but sometimes delays happen. Here are some common reasons why your TDS refund might still be pending:

1. Incomplete or Incorrect Information: Ensure all the details in your income tax return, such as PAN, bank account number, and TDS amount, are accurate and complete.

2. Non-Verification of Return: After filing your return, it’s essential to verify it. Unverified returns are not processed for refunds. You can verify it through Aadhaar OTP, EVC (Electronic Verification Code), or by sending a signed ITR-V to CPC Bangalore.

3. Mismatched TDS Details: The TDS details in your return must match those in Form 26AS. Any discrepancy can lead to delays. Regularly check Form 26AS to ensure all TDS credits are reflected correctly.

4. Processing Delays at CPC: The Centralized Processing Center (CPC) may experience delays during peak filing seasons. Patience is key, and you can track your refund status online through the Income Tax e-filing portal.

5. Outstanding Tax Demand: Any previous tax dues or demands can cause your refund to be adjusted against them. Check for any outstanding demands and resolve them promptly.
