Stuck ITR 2 Processing for FY 16-17: Should I Resubmit or Wait for Updates?

Dear friends,

For the FY 16-17, I filed ITR 2 and successfully e-verified it on time, which was acknowledged by the department. I have the Acknowledge number and documents. However, as of January 2018, it has not been processed yet. The status still shows as "Successfully e-verified." I have not received any intimation regarding discrepancies. Do I need to resubmit the ITR again? What should I do? Can anyone help me with this?

Given that your ITR for FY 16-17 is still showing as "Successfully e-verified" without any further processing or intimation of discrepancies, it's advisable to first check the status of your return on the official income tax website. If the status remains unchanged, you may consider reaching out to the Income Tax Department helpline or visiting the local Income Tax office in Coimbatore to inquire about the delay in processing. It's essential to have your Acknowledge number and relevant documents on hand when seeking clarification. In most cases, a manual follow-up or inquiry with the tax authorities can help resolve such delays without the need for resubmission.
