Question: Hi. What should be the Ward/Circle Number while filling up the ITR 1 form? The Income Tax website says that it should be the one where you submit your returns. But what if I am submitting returns online? Also, if I am in Delhi and PAN was made in some other city, what will be my area of jurisdiction to find out the ward/circle number? Thanks.
Answer: You may find out Assessing Officer (AO) code with the help of your nearest IT PAN Service Center or TIN Facilitation Center or jurisdictional Income Tax Office. You may also click on the following link to view it online:
