Tax Tips: The refund request was not rejected, but refund money has not come yet, what to do? Know here..

ITR Refund: People who have filed income tax returns on time have started getting their refunds. Usually, a refund is received within 4 to 5 weeks of filing ITR. After filing ITR, the Income Tax Department processes the refund after checking your form. But sometimes due to some reasons, your refund request may be rejected or there is a delay in getting the refund. For this, you should go to the Income Tax Department website and check the refund status there.

If your refund request has failed, then you can again submit a refund request. But if your refund request has not been rejected and your refund money has not yet come to your account, then what will you do? In this situation, you can complain about the matter.
