SECTION 245 OF THE INCOME-TAX ACT, 1961 - REFUNDS - SET OFF OF REFUNDS AGAINST TAX REMAINING PAYABLE - CENTRAL ACTION PLAN FOR F.Y. 2013-14 - PENDING REFUNDS FOR A.Y. 2011-12 - Income Tax - F. NO. 380/1/2013-IT(B)

It is seen from the data available on AST that refunds for AY 2011-12 are pending. These need to be issued at the earliest. The same had been conveyed during the last Video Conference on 23-8-2013, but the progress so far has been tardy. 2. I have been directed to request you to take necessary action and direct the Assessing Officers to issue the refunds for AY 2011-12 without further delay. I am also directed to request you to personally monitor the progress in the above respect and send a report on the matter by 15-10-2013 with reasons for non-issue of refunds, if any. LETTER [F. NO. 380/1/2013-IT(B)]
