Upload this XML file on to the website by going to the drop down menu under the 'Submit Return' section; select AY 2010-2011 and the applicable Form. Select 'No' for the question 'Do you want to digitally sign the file?', unless you have obtained a class II digital signature.

 

STEP 7:

If you have followed all steps correctly, a message about successful efiling will be displayed on the site, along with a note that the ITRVerification form has been mailed to your e-mail ID.
