The Income Tax Department has launched a Mobile app where taxpayers can view and can request to correct any discrepancy in the Annual Information Statement (AIS) so that they can rectify it or calculate their tax liability accordingly.

Taxpayers can use the app to view their information related to Tax deducted at Source (TDS), interest, dividends, share transactions, tax payments, Income Tax refunds and other Information, including GST Data and foreign Remittances as available in AIS.

"The taxpayer also has the option and the facility to provide feedback on the information displayed in the app," the finance ministry said in a statement issued on Wednesday.

The taxpayer can access the information by registering on the app by providing PAN number, authenticate with the OTP sent on mobile number and e-mail registered on the e-filing portal. The App is available on Google Play and App Store.

The app will provide enhanced taxpayer services facilitating ease of compliance and will further reduce the scope of tax evasion or litigation.

Earlier this month Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) Chairman Nitin Gupta had said that the department has picked up 68,000 income tax returns for e- verification for the assessment year 2019-20 as information by the annual information system (AIS) did not match with the returns filed.
