Is PAN Migration necessary for Tax Refunds?

POSTED BY ajayagrawal ON October 10, 2013 1:23 pm ONE COMMENT

Hi,

I am an individual. My PAN is currently in BKC 25/1/3 ward. I had filed manual ITR for AY 2008-09 in this ward.

After which, AY 2010-11 return was filed manually under different ward BKC/DT-01/Salary ward.

For both assessment years, IT refund is still due. and I have filed grievance in respective wards.

The issue is: DT-01 ward PRO has asked me to get the PAN migrated to DT01 from 25/1/3. or raise the grievance for 2010-11 with 25/1/3. The officer at ward 25/1/3 tells me that since the return was filed at DT01, they should process the refund.

I have following queries:

1. is the officer of 25/1/3 ward correct? or can I raise the grievance for 2010-11 with 25/1/3 ward irrespective?

The issue also is 25/1/3 ward is not prompt in clearing my refund for 2008-09, inspite of several follow-ups! what options do I have as I have also approached the Assessing officer of this ward couple of times too. until this refund is sorted, I cannot initiate PAN transfer to DT01 too, I guess?

Please help me with options. advise me if I can approach any common senior authority with this issue.

Thanks

    Dear Ajay, you can transfer for your PAN as well as Assessment transfer even now. Once your ASSEssing officer changes, you can file your complaint for old refund of 2008-2009 with the transferred AO.

    Thanks
