Tax Refund Status Online: Still waiting for previous year’s tax refunds?

If you have filed your tax returns on time and are waiting for a refund, then here is some help to track what may have happened to your tax returns.
The Income Tax Department has put on its website the list of income tax refunds of all salary tax payers which could not be sent to the concerned persons for want of correct address.

Salary taxpayers who have not received refunds for assessment years 2003-04 to 2006-07 can click on the link below and query using the PAN number and assessment year whether any refund due to them has been returned undelivered from the menu `undelivered salary refund management system'. If any refund has been returned undelivered due to change in address, then the taxpayer can enter the present address and the refund will be sent to the taxpayer at the new address.

The link to the website is as under:

Tax refund and PF Transfer are the two websites which never gives correct status :)
At least I have not heard from anyone who got a correct answer from these websites...

I can give you a honest piece of advice here.

If you have not received a tax refund for any of the previous years, just file a simple RTI (Right to Information) Application at your Income Tax office and pay a RTI fee of Rs. 10 only.

Just ask two questions in your RTI application:
1) What is the status of the tax refund for (PAN No.), (Name) and (Assesment Year)

2) Ask them to specify an exact date by which the refund will be sent to you.
Within a month you will get your money!
Personal experience! :)
