When is the best time to use Income Tax e-Filing?

The days before the ITR filing deadline are the single heaviest load of the year. Retrying outside those windows is usually faster than repeatedly refreshing during them.

Income Tax e-Filing is not working — what to try

  1. 1

    Avoid the deadline crush

    Application portals are provisioned for average load, not deadline load. If a form will not submit in the final hours of a window, the server is queueing rather than rejecting you — retrying every few seconds makes the queue worse for everyone, including you.

  2. 2

    Keep evidence of the attempt

    Screenshot any error page with a visible timestamp, and save the transaction or reference ID if payment was attempted. Boards frequently extend deadlines after a documented outage, and the screenshot is what supports a grievance.

  3. 3

    Prefer the direct portal URL

    Aggregator and coaching sites often mirror stale links. Type incometax.gov.in directly rather than following a search result, which avoids landing on a decommissioned subdomain.

  4. 4

    Confirm the problem is not your connection

    Open any other site. If nothing loads, the issue is your network rather than Income Tax e-Filing. On Windows run ping incometax.gov.in and nslookup incometax.gov.in in Command Prompt; on macOS or Linux use Terminal. A DNS failure and a server failure look identical in a browser but are very different problems.

  5. 5

    Bypass your own cache

    Load incometax.gov.in in a private or incognito window. If it works there, clear cookies and site data for incometax.gov.in in your normal browser rather than clearing everything.

  6. 6

    Try a different network

    Switch from Wi-Fi to mobile data, or vice versa. Regional ISP routing problems are common and often affect one carrier while others are unaffected.
