Registration on Income Tax e-Filing Portal

The dynamic progression of direct taxes in India over the past few decades mirrors the changing contours of socio-economic thought. In alignment with the vision of Digital India, the Income Tax department, under the aegis of the Ministry of Finance, unveiled the e-Filing Portal in 2021. This innovative platform embodies the government’s commitment to digitization and aims to serve as a centralized hub for accessing a wide array of income tax-related services for taxpayers and other stakeholders alike. To initiate the process of filing an income tax return, individuals are required to complete registration on the e-Filing Portal, thereby embracing the seamless transition towards digital tax compliance.
