27 May 2016A person filed tax return of AY 2013-14 (refundable amount Rs. 19590). Since he failed to send the hard copy, it was rejected.
In AY2014-15 he went to UAE (on 14-Aug-2013) as part of his job and stayed there till Dec 2015. No return were file for AY 2014-15(refundable amount Rs.16166) and AY 2015-16.
Is there any possibility of getting refund for AY 2013-14 and AY 2014-15?
