Assessment Year is the year in which you file the return of the Previous Year. For example, you file the return of your income for the period starting on 1st April 2016 and ending on 31st March 2017 in Assessment Year 2017-2018. Here 2016-2017 is the Previous Year, i.e. the year for which tax computations were done and 2017-2018 is the Assessment Year in which return for PY 2016-17 were filed/processed.
Refunds are issued via direct a/c transfer or paper check mode. Once the assessing officer has processed the return, status for the same can be checked after 10 days on which such assessing officer sends the refund. Refund sent shall also contain interest on tax refund. To know more about interest on tax, click the link below:

I love blogging and studying taxation. I write articles related to Tax laws and common issues in handling taxation in India. Often, common but small mistakes make things complicated. I write and share them to save precious time of others.
