One user complained and wrote, “Correct the difficulties faced in online filing… Last name is neither automatic nor allowed to be entered in ITR-3. So online verification and submission of ITR is not possible? So what to do?” Responding to the user’s complaint, the official Twitter handle of the Income Tax Department said, “Please share the details of the case (with PAN and your mobile number) with us at orm@cpc.incometax.gov.in. Our team will contact you. We would also request you not to share personal details like PAN on social media so that it is not misused.”
