Meaning & Definition

tax refund

A tax refund is the return of excess tax paid to the government after filing an income tax return (ITR). It occurs when the amount of tax withheld or paid exceeds the taxpayer's actual tax liability based on income, deductions, and credits. Tax refunds are issued by tax authorities to taxpayers entitled to a refund.
