Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Tuesday asked Infosys to fix all issues on the new income tax portal immediately, while the software major said at least five technical glitches, including viewing past ITRs and e-proceedings, are expected to be resolved within a week.
As numerous glitches have continued to mar the functioning of the new e-filing portal for two weeks since its launch on June 7, the finance ministry had called Infosys the vendor which developed the site for a meeting to hear out stakeholder concerns and suggest remedial measures for fixing the issues.
