How TaxCare handles it

Only what the app does today — nothing promised for later.

  1. Your original return, foundTaxCare reads the returns you have already filed from the portal, so the one you are correcting is identified for you.
  2. Your records, fetchedOnce your PAN is connected, TaxCare pulls your AIS, TIS and Form 26AS or Form 168 straight from the Income Tax portal.
  3. Every figure checkedIncome in your AIS that isn't in your return yet — savings interest, deposit interest, dividends — is found and shown to you before you file.
  4. Pay what's due, then fileAny tax, interest or fee still due is worked out for you and paid before the return is filed.
  5. Approve, upload, e-verifyNothing is released until you approve it. You upload the return on the Income Tax portal, then e-verify with an Aadhaar OTP, and reminders follow until it's done.
  6. A Tax Expert when you need oneIf your return has something self-filing doesn't cover, hand it to a verified TaxCare Tax Expert from inside the app. The price is shown before you book.

What you need

Most of your figures are fetched for you. Keep these ready.

  • Your PAN, linked with your Aadhaar

  • Your Aadhaar-linked or portal-registered mobile, for the OTP

  • The 15-digit acknowledgement number of the return you filed earlier

  • A bank account in your name, validated on the Income Tax portal, for the refund

    What happens if you miss the ITR due date?

    Missing the ITR due date does not close the door. You can still file a belated return, but you may pay a late fee and interest, and you lose the old regime and most loss carry-forwards. Here is exactly what changes and what to do.

Questions, answered

How many times can I revise?

As many times as you need within the window. Each revised return replaces the last one.

My return isn't e-verified yet.

Then it doesn't count as filed. E-verify it or, if it is wrong, discard it on the portal and file again — no revision needed.

Is there a fee to revise?

Not until 31-Dec-2026. After that, a revision until 31-Mar-2027 carries a fee of ₹5,000, or ₹1,000 if your total income is up to ₹5,00,000.

What if the window has closed?

If you have income to add, you can file an updated return (ITR-U) instead, with additional tax.

Fix it before the department does.

Your first return with TaxCare gets 25% off. The fee follows your income: free up to ₹1,00,000, then from ₹49 — never more than ₹1,499.
