| Abstract: | This study examines the digitalization of income tax filing in India and evaluates its opportunities and challenges from the perspective of taxpayers. The research combines doctrinal analysis of the evolution of the e-filing framework with empirical analysis based on primary survey data collected from 126 respondents. The study finds that digital income tax filing has significantly improved convenience, time saving, transparency, record tracking, and overall administrative efficiency. At the same time, important challenges continue to affect taxpayers, including limited awareness of advanced portal features, dependence on chartered accountants and other intermediaries, fear of notices and penalties, portal glitches during peak filing periods, difficulty in understanding technical terminology, and concerns relating to privacy and misuse of financial information. The findings further show that self-filers report higher awareness, lower challenge, and greater satisfaction than assisted filers, indicating that digital participation has expanded more rapidly than digital autonomy. The study also finds cautious openness toward AI-based support tools for error detection and taxpayer guidance, although respondents strongly prefer human review and clear explanation for any AI-related decision. The paper concludes that the next stage of reform should focus on simplification, guided support, safer assisted filing, and taxpayer-centered digital governance. |
