What this check measures
HTTPS request from our server in Europe. The Income Tax e-filing portal (eportal.incometax.gov.in). It checks that the portal answers; it does not log in or file returns, so slow ITR submission or OTP failures near deadlines are not visible here.
A passing check means Income Tax e-filing portal's website answered our server in Europe with a normal page. It does not prove that logins, payments or the mobile app work, and a site that blocks non-Indian traffic would look down here while working in India.

Income Tax e-filing portal not working? Questions and answers
Is Income Tax e-filing portal down for everyone or just me?
This page shows what our own checks see from a server in Europe, independent of your phone, Wi-Fi or mobile network. If this page says Income Tax e-filing portal is up but it fails for you, the problem is more likely local: your internet connection, DNS, your ISP's route, the app version, or your account. If this page shows failures too, it is probably down for many people.
What should I do if Income Tax e-filing portal is not working?
Check the official status page linked above, reload or force-close and reopen the app, try mobile data instead of Wi-Fi (or the other way round), and clear the browser cache. Government portals slow down near filing deadlines, so try again outside peak hours, and keep the acknowledgement or application number.
