1 Purpose
The Income Tax Department has provided free  return  preparation  software  in  downloads page which are fully compliant with data quality requirements. However, there are certain commercially available software or websites that offer return preparation facilities as well. In order to ensure the data quality of ITRs prepared through such  commercially  available software, various types of validation rules are being deployed  in  the  e-Filing  portal,  so  that the data which is being uploaded are  accurate  and  compliant  to  the  validation  rules  to  a large extent. The taxpayers are advised to review these validation rules to ensure that the software used by them is compliant  with  these  requirements,  to  avoid  rejection  of  return due to poor data quality or mistakes in the return.
The software providers are strictly advised to adhere to these rules to avoid inconvenience to the taxpayers, who may use their software. Software providers may please note that these validation rules will be strictly monitored and enforced, and each  rule  will  have  to  be complied strictly. In case of violations, the concerned return preparation utility/ software is liable to be blacklisted without  any notice and  such  blacklisting will be published on the e- filing website. No return using blacklisted software will be permitted to be uploaded till the time the software provider is able to provide details of correction in software. This may cause avoidable inconvenience to the taxpayers and loss of reputation to  software  providers  for which the Income Tax Department will not be responsible.
