An updated version of the income tax department website that will be a single window for all online services offered by the department will be launched Monday by Finance Minister Arun Jaitley.

The website will be more user-friendly and robust, so that it can handle many hits at a time, an official said here.

"The new website will have enhanced features so as to be more customer friendly. The taxpayers will be able to file their I-T returns online and even apply for a PAN from this portal which was till now hosted on a different official web address of the department," he said.

The website will also provide information on the Income Tax Act, contain notices and circulars as well as news of developments in the department, the official added.

Jaitley will launch the enhanced portal from his office here in the presence of senior officials of the department.
