Need Help: income tax refund

[C S Neeraja]

Hi

I was searching in google for finding the procedure on how to get the income tax refund back from Income Tax Dept. There I found this site. I hope I'll be able to get my income tax refund back from IT dept with your guidance and help.

My query is:
I'm working for a software company as a software engineer in Bangalore. I paid more tax for the financial years 2004-2005 and 2005-2006. I have not received the refund yet. Also, my name is not present in the list that are supposed to receive refund, prepared by the IT department. I have ITS - 2D forms with me. It comes in WARD 14(4).
Will I be able to get my money back?

I have read the prodeure in your site and I'll do per that..

Thanks & Regards.
Neeraja.

Please help.

rtiindia.info requires a separate registration, as it is hosted on a different server. Can you tell me the purpose of your requirement for this Annexure A? If it is about filing an application for your IT refund, then you can down load the sample RTI application form for IT refund from rtiinidia.info.

Thanks for the information. Yes it is for filing an application for IT refund. I downloaded the sample RTI application form for IT refund from rtiinidia.info and sent it.
I'm waiting for the Ack.

Hi,

We have posted Annexure A as you suggested on 12 th July 2008 separately for FY 2005-2006 and FY 2006-2007 . We got acknowledgement for the same on 15th July 2008. We waited for a month and we got an information/acknowledgement letter from Income-tax department on 19th August 2008 saying that our matter is receiving attention. But, since then we have NOT heard back from them.

Kindly guide us further on this.

Thanks & Regards,
C.S.Neeraja.

Neeraja,

If the information you asked for in your RTI Application has not been provided to you within 30 days, then it is "deemed denial" of information. There is no Section in the RTI Act which allows the PIO to reply that matter is "receiving attention".

Please immediately file a First Appeal for deemed denial of information.

A general format for such a First Appeal is attached to the following post:

Disregarding RTI Act

Just fill in the blanks and make suitable changes, if necessary.

Karira,

What we sent was Annexure A, Per this link we should now be sending Annexure B. Please clarify.

Thanks & Regards,
C.S.Neeraja.
