The other stakeholders of the meeting would be members from ICAI, auditors, consultants and taxpayers, a statement from the Finance Ministry said. 


“The new portal has been fraught with several technical glitches/issues leading to taxpayer inconvenience. Written representations on the problems/difficulties faced in the portal have also been invited from the stakeholders,” the ministry said.


After the launch of the new website on June 7, taxpayers have been complaining about several difficulties like being unable to access the new portal. Even after logging in, people are finding it difficult to do transactions or respond to tax notices.
