I got the issue escalated which was first then up by mumbai office then they sent it to Delhi office which sent it back to mumbai office. Today is 26 th April and am still waiting.
Absolute garbage – interest has not been credited
Not got
Still now nothing credit
How many days Govt need to pay the interest that is supposed to be credited on 31-Mar-2020? Any delay in tax payment would be fined with heavy interest. Stock market has crossed highest ever. Govt got petrol for cheap price and selling for much higher.
Only when it comes to doing the needful for tax paying salaried employee there is too much delay and marginal lukewarm increase of tax slabs.
This is a lie…
बेवकूफ बनाने की भी हद होती है। ये सरकार और डिपार्टमेंट की मिलीभगत है। बड़ बड़ करते जाओ और करो घण्टा।जनता का पैसा खाने के चक्कर में है ये मोदी सरकार

It’s better if they give interest for 2 years by the end of March 2021, as this financial year will end within 3 months. Such is laid back attitude of this organisation.
