address given by the assessee should be changed by applying changes in PAN form...

For future correspondence address given by the assessee should be changed by applying changes in PAN form. But for the current year for which Refund is returned undelivered, Just write a simple plain paper applicaton to concern AO with complete details of New address along with Copy of 49A (along with its acknowledgement) in which changes are applied for.

Alternativly, you can visit the Concern AO personally and ask them for what action to be taken

Regards

In case of E filed returns...

At this point change of address is entertained only to the PAN address. If the PAN address is different then the assessee needs to update the PAN address and then just call CPC for the refund to be initiatied to the PAN address. Alternatively, if the refund is below 25k then the assessee can opt for ECS. He will need to download and fill the response sheet, attach a cancelled cheque and send both to CPC.

Hi,

I'm a salaried employee, & the PF amount of employer contribution is also being deducted from my salary. Whether the amount deducted from my salary is an allowed deduction or it is chargeable for income tax?
