The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) has urged taxpayers to update their Income Tax Returns (ITR) and withdraw any wrongful claims under the NUDGE Campaign. Under the campaign, SMSs and Email advisories are being issued from the 12th of this month to such taxpayers on their registered mobile numbers and emails.

CBDT has also advised taxpayers to ensure that the correct mobile and email IDs are mentioned in their filings with the Department so that they do not miss out on any communication. The 2nd Nonintrusive Usage of Data to Guide and Enable-NUDGE campaign was launched by CBDT last month as a taxpayer-friendly measure to strengthen voluntary compliance. Additional information on deduction provisions and filing of Updated Returns is available at www.incometax.gov.in.
