Updatation and Activation of Profile at Income Tax e-filing website

Income Tax Department has started a new Registration process for user registration at e-filing website. As per the Department the new process seeks to facilitate effective communication between the taxpayer and department. It would be worth to mention that no return can be filed, without registering at the e-filing website of Income Tax. The existing e-Filing users are required to update their profile by logging into e-Filing account. Users who have registered already and not activated has to register again.

However, the moot question remains if the Department has the mandate to require such information? and what if a user fills wrong/false inputs in the profile either inadvertently or deliberately. As per existing Laws filing wrong data is not a default attracting penal provisions.

As soon as the users log in they will be prompted to fill their details as per the following form and update their profiles. Alternatively, it can be accessed through “Profile” Menu.
