Tax Refund 2016

 
Thursday (January 7) is the last day to get your ITR V with the taxman. Yes, it is 120 days since your September taxfiling deadline. If you had a refund to claim, it was mandatory that you made an electronic filing.

This year, the tax department had also introduced e-verification of ITR V , making the tax return process fully electronic for the first time. This year, the tax department has processed refunds in three to four weeks for those who e-verified. So, have you got your refund yet?


If not, the first thing to do is track it on the income-tax department's Tax Information Network website (tin.nsdl.com).

You simply need your PAN number and assessment year to do this. If you e-verified in the past one month, the refund might still be under process and the status should read: Not Deter mined.However, if it has been longer than that, your status should read that your assessing officer has sent the refund to your refund banker. Meaning, you'll soon have the money in your account. Anything else means your refund is stuck for some reason.

REASONS & RECTIFICATIONS

The reason for it still being processed can range from you entering a wrong IFSC code or account number to the department not agreeing to your tax calculation or deduction claimed leading to a mismatch (See box).

Entering wrong bank details can be easily corrected online on the I-T website. You just have to update your details via `refund re-issue request' under `my accounts'.

For a credit mismatch, you might get a notice (through an email) from the department. In this case, you might have to file a `rectification'.

Rectification under Section 154(1) can be filed for small errors such as mismatch in tax credit, advance tax mismatch, incorrect gender or additional details not submitted for capital gains at the time of filing return. A rectification does not mean you have to refile your return.

However, after rectifying a `mistake', if there is a change in income , you'll have to file a revised return. Moreover, you can't claim new deductions and exemptions in a rectification request.

A common reason for a tax credit mismatch is a TDS mismatch. The tax credit you have claimed does not match with the TDS entries on your Form 26AS. You must have received a mail from taxmen explaining it or you can log in to the e-filing site and check for the information under "my accounts".

If you agree with the mismatch, file a rectification. If you think there is a mistake in your Form 26AS, you'll have to get in touch with the respective TDS deductor--the bank or your employer--to get it fixed.

Another reason for not getting your refund could be that you had some outstanding liability . The assessing officer has a right to adjust your refund against unpaid dues of previous years. This is allowed under Section 245 of the Income-Tax Act. You will be receiving a notification from the assessing officer and again, you'll have to file a rectification. If you are not sure how the tax demand was calculated or you do not agree with the tax department, you might need a CA's assistance to file a response. Sometimes, sleuths may also ask for additional details to process your return with refund. In this case, you'll receive an email explaining the information sought.

How Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) works?

    THE tax season is here. And if you are an employee you can't blame your employer for deducting large chunks of money from your salary towards tax deducted at source ( TDS ), which he is legally obliged to do. Your bank will also deduct some percentage from your FD interest of Rs 10,000 or more towards TDS! So what is this TDS all about? How is it computed? Are there any changes this year? Read on...

As the name suggests TDS is the amount of tax that is deducted at source in certain types of income . The TDS thus collected is deposited in the Government treasury within a specified time. How is it computed? Some of the types of income where TDS is applicable include salary, interest, rental fee, interest on securities, insurance commission, dividends from shares and UTI/Mutual Funds, commission and brokerage

What is price deflator?

What is price deflator? A defaltor is used to restate data measured over time to prices prevailing at a particular period or time to make it comparable. Essentially, a deflator removes the effect of inflation from the data. What is the role of price deflator in GDP calculations? Prices are continuously in a state of flux, but generally trend upwards over time. Therefore, even without an increase in the quantity of goods and services produced by an economy, price increase can give the impression of an increase in the gross domestic product, or GDP, the benchmark indicator of economic activity. Therefore, the impact of prices has to be removed at arrive at a true measure of the value of goods and services produced, or real economic growth.
