Income-tax portal 2.0 likely to allow payments by UPI, credit cards
Currently, taxpayers have the option to make payments through net-banking of large private and public sector banks
Transactions via debit cards are allowed but not widely used
This makes it difficult for those whose banks are not listed in the portal
The portal might add more private banks to collect taxes and any other amount
This includes fees, penalty, and refunds payable under the I-T Act
The new portal www.incometax.gov.in
