The Income Tax Department has launched a mobile app called ‘AIS for Taxpayer’ to help taxpayers view their information from the Annual Information Statement (AIS) / Taxpayer Information Summary (TIS).
The app’s goal is to provide the taxpayer with a comprehensive view of the AIS/TIS by displaying information gathered from various sources pertaining to the taxpayer.
The Income Tax Department provides a free mobile application called ‘AIS for Taxpayer,’ which is available on Google Play and the App Store.
To use this mobile app, the taxpayer must first register by entering their PAN number and then authenticate with the OTP sent to their registered mobile number and email address on the e-filing portal. Following authentication, the taxpayer can simply enter a 4-digit PIN to gain access to the mobile app.
Taxpayers can use the mobile app to access information such as TDS/TCS, interest, dividends, share transactions, tax payments, Income Tax refunds, and Other Information (GST Data, Foreign Remittances, and so on) that is available in AIS/TIS. The taxpayer is also given the option and facility of providing feedback on the information displayed in the app.
This is yet another initiative of the Income Tax Department aimed at improving taxpayer services and making compliance easier.
