Subject: “Request for Condonation of Delay in Income Tax Filing and Refund Claim – Legal Procedure & Guidelines”
Dear Sir,
I am assessed for income tax under PAN [PAN Number], and my case falls under the jurisdiction of the Chief Commissioner of Income Tax, [Jurisdiction]. I am submitting this petition seeking condonation of delay in filing my income tax return and claiming a refund/loss for the assessment year [A.Y.].
Reasons for Delay:
Despite my intention to file the return within the prescribed time limit, I was unable to do so due to the following genuine reasons:
- I was not at my job location due to Covid-related issues.
- There were serious health issues in my family.
- The income-tax website was not fully operational at that time.
- Reconciliation with the AIS statement issued by the Income Tax Department was required.
- Additional time was needed for arranging documents and information per the latest AIS statement.
- Other reasons: [Specify if applicable].
Claim Details:
The total refund due/losses claimed by me amounts to Rs. [Amount]. I understand that since the prescribed time limits have already passed, the authority to admit my return and process the refund now rests solely with the Board. Hence, I submit this application for your kind consideration.
Request for Consideration:
I sincerely request that my delayed return and refund/loss claim be accepted in view of the reasonable cause that prevented timely filing. The non-acceptance of this petition would result in undue hardship to me.
I anticipate a favorable response and appreciate your cooperation. Please let me know if any further details or documents are required in this regard.
Yours sincerely,
