While people prepare their return by answering some simple questions asked by the system, they go on recording the answers in simple step by step manner. Apart from this, people need not know the income tax laws or need not even remember the various subsections of the income tax laws.
Tax shall bring people to the latest system of e-filing income tax returns from anywhere and at anytime, just at the click of a button. E-filing provides many advantages to taxpayers. Quick processing refunds are received much sooner, particularly if they are deposited directly into a bank account.
Errors are also reduced at both ends and e-tax preparation software can sometimes suggest deductions, review returns for data that could lead to an audit, among others.

In the future, the Authority has planned to use bank interface system in e-tax by which it would be networked with various banks so as to allow customers to pay their taxes electronically.
