An ITR-V Form will be generated on successful upload of an e-Return if it is not uploaded with a DSC (digitally signed) / EVC. It is an ITR-V Form that is a form of acknowledgment/verification. Print out the form and sign it in blue ink. Only upon receiving the ITR-V at CPC, Bengaluru will the return filing process be complete. Within 120 days of filing your online tax return, send the form by post to the Income-Tax Department-CPC at Post Bag No. 1, Electronic City Post Office, Bengaluru, 560 100, Karnataka.
By using EVC, an individual’s ITR-V postage can be completely avoided if their accounts are not audited. EVC can be generated through internet banking or Aadhaar.
FAQs?
-
If I file a tax return this year, will the IT department ask about my income in previous years?
You must honor your constitutional obligations for paying taxes. If you had taxable income in those years and there was tax owed, the department may ask you to file tax returns for those years.

Will I be refunded excess tax if I have paid it?
When you file an income tax return, you can claim the excess tax refund as a refund. It will be refunded as a check or a credit to your bank account. The Income Tax Department has been making every effort to settle refund claims within four months from the month of filing.
