No amount will come in the account,
but there is also a rule of income tax under which no money is returned to you by the department even after making a refund. That is, no amount will come in your bank account. Abhishek Soni, CEO of ITR filing website Tax2win, says that according to the press note issued by the government on January 5, 2012, if your income tax refund is less than Rs 100 according to the calculations of the Income Tax Department, then it is not sent to your bank account. .
The rule applies to the refund of less than Rs 100,
he said that if there is an income tax refund of Rs 100, it gets adjusted in your next year’s income tax refund. For example, if your income tax refund is made Rs 80 in the financial year 2020-21, then it will not be credited to your account. With this, in the next year 2021-22, if your income tax refund is Rs 70, then adding (80 + 70) Rs 150 for both the years will be credited to your account. If this figure is less than Rs 100, then this money is not given by the department.
