Overview

What the Income Verification API does

With consent, the API pulls the last filed returns and TDS credits and, optionally, salary credits from consented bank data, then reconciles them into an annual income estimate and a confidence score.

Consent is part of the contract

The person consents to income data access through the OTP or Account Aggregator step that starts the flow.
