REPRESENTATION SERVICE

Income Tax Notice Handling

Expert response and representation for all types of income tax notices — from simple defect notices to full scrutiny assessments.

Overview

An income tax notice requires a precise, well-documented response within a strict deadline. Inadequate or late responses result in ex-parte assessments, penalty orders, and demand creation. Our CA team analyses every notice received, assesses the risk and the best response strategy, gathers supporting documentation, drafts the legal reply, and represents you before the assessing officer or CPC as required.

Who Should Avail This?

Individuals with Mismatch Notices

Those who received 143(1) or AIS mismatch letters from CPC.

Businesses Under Scrutiny

Companies or proprietors selected for detailed assessment under Sec 143(2).

Those with Pending Demands

Taxpayers with outstanding demand notices where they believe the demand is incorrect.

NRIs with Indian Income

Non-residents who received notices on Indian income, TDS or refund matters.

How It Works

1

Notice Review & Risk Assessment

We read the exact notice, identify the legal section and grounds, and assess the deadline and risk level.

2

Supporting Document Gathering

We prepare a checklist of required documents — bank statements, invoices, ITR acknowledgements — and collect them from you.

3

Legal Reply Drafting

Our CA drafts a precise, legally sound reply addressing each point raised by the assessing officer or CPC.

4

Submission & Acknowledgement

Reply is submitted through ITDREIN / income tax portal and an acknowledgement is obtained.

5

Follow-up & Resolution

We track the status and represent you in any subsequent hearing until the matter is fully resolved.

Key Benefits / Why Choose Us

Avoid Ex-Parte Assessment

Non-response to notices leads to ex-parte demands — often multiples of the original income. Our timely response prevents this.

Expert Legal Drafting

Every reply is worded precisely to protect your interests without triggering further scrutiny.

Representation Before AO

If a personal hearing is required, our CA appears before the Assessing Officer on your behalf.

Appeal Filing

If the AO's order is unfavourable, we file appeals before CIT(A) or ITAT with strong grounds.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q.What should I do immediately on receiving a tax notice?

A. Do not ignore it. Check the section of the notice (e.g., 139(9), 142(1), 143(2), 148) and the response deadline. Contact us immediately — most notices have 15 to 30-day response windows.

Q.What is a Sec 143(1) notice?

A. A 143(1) intimation is the most common notice — it is a computational adjustment notice from CPC. It typically indicates a mismatch in income or TDS claims and may result in a tax demand or refund.

Q.Can I respond to a notice myself?

A. Yes, but it is risky. An incorrect or incomplete response can disclose information that triggers further scrutiny. A professional CA reply is always safer.
