03 September 2013 If you have any refund amount then only you face the problem, Because of the account number mentioned in the return form shall be printed on the refund cheque and the bank may reject to give credit into your correct account because of account number on the cheque incorrect. if you choose online credit then the credit will be reject because of Account number and IFSC code doesn't match.

So if you have refund amount and you facing problems to get credit of such amount into your account then after receipt of 143(1) intimation please post a request for refund re-issue at www.incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in in case you filed e-filing with correct account number or file 154(1) rectification request with correct account number.

In case if you filed manual return of income then write a letter to the AO where you submitted your return of income with requesting correction in you bank account number with details of your return filed.

However if you didn't have any refund amount then please be keep silent you didn't face any problem. Because of account number is most important for refund cases only.
