Ministry of Finance has summoned Sh Salil Parekh, MD & CEO Infosys on 23/08/2021 to explain to Hon’ble FinanceMinister as to why even after 2.5 months since launch of new e-filing portal, glitches in the portal have not been resolved.
After this tweet by the Income Tax Department, many big twitter handles have tweeted against Infosys:
Special Correspondent of The Pioneer, J Gopikrishnan has tweeted that “All Govt portals of Infosys is a such disaster …GST, MCA, now new Income Tax portal tooo… Why Govt giving this company so much contracts???? while TCS is handling MCA earlier and passport operations also very well.”

Senior Advisor of Ministry of Information & Broadcasting, Kanchan Gupta tweeted “This is the second major GoI project Infosys has messed up. The first was GST portal. Now it is Income Tax portal. Infosys bags GoI projects using L1 route which limits options Clearly lacks either capacity or intent to deliver. Two ‘failures’ in a row cannot be coincidence.”
