If you are among those who have filed income tax return (ITR) for the last fiscal (AY 2022-23) and the department owes you refund, then you might receive an email from the I-T Department asking you to confirm it. As per the email sent by the department to taxpayers, individuals who have claimed tax refunds in their filing are required to confirm that the ITR filed by them is correct and tax refunds are due to them.
This confirmation is required to be made within 15 days of receiving the email. While the email does not mention what will happen if this 15-day deadline is not met, some experts say that the taxpayer may get another notice from the income tax department asking for more proof.
