“It is observed that your ITR is filed between 1.4.2022 to 31.07.2022 for AY 2022-23 and not verified within 120 days. It shall be taken up for further processing only when it is verified, therefore you are requested to complete the e-verification process by raising a condonation request from the e-filing portal on www.incometax.gov.in at the earliest.”

ITR Non Verification- Consequences
