The government on Tuesday asked Infosys to immediately resolve glitches arising in the e-filing portal launched last night for income taxpayers.

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman personally intervened after several taxpayers took to Twitter to complain of glitches in the new system.

The much awaited e-filing portal 2.0 was launched last night 20:45hrs.

I see in my TL grievances and glitches.

Hope @Infosys & @NandanNilekani will not let down our taxpayers in the quality of service being provided.

Ease in compliance for the taxpayer should be our priority. https://t.co/iRtyKaURLc
