Net Banking (E-Verification) is a digital method used to confirm the authenticity of income tax returns (ITRs) and other filings on the Income Tax Department's e-filing portal, using your internet banking credentials. It allows individuals and businesses to verify their tax submissions quickly and securely, without the need for physical documents or manual signatures.
In the Indian taxation system, e-verification is an essential step after filing your ITR. Without verifying your return, it is not considered valid by the tax authorities. Net banking makes this process seamless, especially for taxpayers who already use internet banking for their financial transactions.
To use Net Banking for e-verification, the taxpayer logs in to their bank's net banking portal, selects the 'Income Tax e-Filing' option, and is redirected to the e-filing portal, where they can complete the verification. This method is secure and avoids delays associated with physical verification methods like sending signed ITR-V forms to CPC Bengaluru.
For small business owners, freelancers, and professionals, Net Banking (E-Verification) is particularly useful as it saves time, reduces paperwork, and supports compliance with minimal effort. It also helps avoid penalties or rejections due to missed verification deadlines.
This user-friendly verification method is one of the many digital tools promoted under India’s drive for simplified tax compliance. To learn more about efficient income tax filing and e-verification solutions, visit FinTax24’s income tax services.
