Section 264 is revision in favour of the assessee — the Pr.CIT/CIT may, on application or suo motu, revise any order passed by an authority subordinate to him if it is prejudicial to the assessee. Application must be filed within 1 year from the date of communication of the order. Unlike Section 263, no appeal lies against the original order — the assessee chooses between Section 246A appeal and Section 264 revision but cannot pursue both.

Expert IT Notice Reply in Adyar — qualified professionals, 15+ years experience, zero-penalty track record.
Of the last 145 income-tax notices replied to at this practice, 118 closed at the e-Proceedings stage, 22 progressed to faceless assessment under 144B, and 5 reached CIT(A). The numbers are kept on a running internal register and shared with clients on intake — not estimated, not rounded for marketing.
Every notice received is authenticated for DIN under CBDT Circular 19 of 2019 before drafting begins. Two notices in the last three years failed authentication outright, and the underlying engagement closed at that stage. The rule is treated as a substantive defence, not a checkbox.
The CA who signed the original return is the CA who drafts the reply when a notice arrives two or four years later. Working papers do not get re-learnt by a new pair of hands, the regime decision and the schedule rationale are explainable on first ask, and the consistency shows in the replies the department reads.
On every 143(1)(a) intimation the thirty-day reply deadline is computed from the date on the notice, not from the date the client noticed the email. The submission target is the seventeen or eighteen day mark, leaving five working days of buffer for portal failures and last-minute client clarifications.
Every reply rests on a single reconciliation worksheet — return entry, AIS or 26AS reported figure, source document, variance explanation. The narrative letter is short. The annexure pack is detailed. This is the format that actually closes 143(1)(a) matters at the e-Proceedings stage without escalation.
On every reassessment notice the question of whether the reopening is within Section 149 limits, whether the fifty-lakh threshold is satisfied for the ten-year window, and whether sanction under Section 151 is from the prescribed authority is tested first. Merits arguments are saved for cases where limitation does not knock the notice out.
Every IT Notice Reply engagement delivers measurable, guaranteed outcomes — expert professionals, on time, every time.

Every claim on this page can be traced back to a section or rule below.
Sub-section (1) of Section 142 of the Income-tax Act 1961 empowers the Assessing Officer to call for a return where none has been furnished, to require production of accounts and documents, and to call for any information on points or matters considered necessary for assessment. It is to be noted that the proviso to clause (ii) bars the officer from calling for accounts relating to a period more than three years prior to the previous year without prior approval of the Joint Commissioner. Non-compliance attracts penalty under Section 271(1)(b) of ten thousand rupees per default and prosecution under Section 276D.
View sourceSub-section (1) of Section 143 prescribes the summary processing of a return furnished under Section 139 or in response to a notice under Section 142(1). The system computes the total income or loss after making adjustments enumerated in clauses (i) to (vi) — arithmetical errors, incorrect claims apparent from the return information, disallowance of loss claimed where the return is belated, disallowance of expenditure indicated in the audit report but not taken into account, disallowance of deduction claimed under Section 10AA or any provision of Chapter VI-A heading 'C' where the return is furnished beyond the due date, and addition of income appearing in Form 26AS or Form 16 not included in the return. The proviso requires an intimation of any proposed adjustment to be communicated and a response window of thirty days afforded before the adjustment is given effect.
View sourceSub-section (2) of Section 143 enables the Assessing Officer or the prescribed income-tax authority, where a return has been furnished under Section 139 or in response to a notice under Section 142(1), to serve on the assessee a notice requiring him to attend the office or produce evidence in support of the return. The proviso prescribes an outer limit of three months from the end of the financial year in which the return is furnished, beyond which no Section 143(2) notice may be issued. Selection for scrutiny follows the Central Action Plan and the Computer Assisted Scrutiny Selection criteria notified by the Central Board of Direct Taxes for the relevant assessment year.
View sourceSection 148 as substituted prescribes that before making the assessment or reassessment under Section 147, the Assessing Officer shall serve on the assessee a notice requiring him to furnish a return of income within the period specified in the notice, not being less than three months. The proviso requires that no notice under this section shall be issued unless there is information with the officer which suggests that income chargeable to tax has escaped assessment, and the officer has obtained prior approval of the specified authority. The order under Section 148A(d) must precede issue of the Section 148 notice.
View sourceSection 148A, inserted by the Finance Act 2021 and modified by the Finance Act 2022, prescribes a four-stage pre-notice inquiry — clause (a) the officer may conduct any inquiry with prior approval; clause (b) the officer shall provide an opportunity of being heard by serving a show-cause notice of not less than seven days and not more than thirty days; clause (c) the officer shall consider the reply furnished by the assessee; clause (d) the officer shall pass an order with the approval of the specified authority deciding whether or not it is a fit case to issue a Section 148 notice. It is to be noted that clause (d) order is the document on which the validity of the subsequent Section 148 notice rises or falls.
View sourceSection 154 enables an income-tax authority to amend any order passed by it, or any intimation or deemed intimation under Section 143(1), or any intimation under Section 200A(1) or Section 206CB(1), with a view to rectifying any mistake apparent from the record. Sub-section (1A) extends the power to amendments consequent to an appellate order. Sub-section (7) imposes a four-year limitation reckoned from the end of the financial year in which the order sought to be amended was passed. Sub-section (8) requires a six-month disposal timeline where the assessee himself moves an application. It is to be noted that the mistake must be apparent on the face of the record and not require a long-drawn process of reasoning or investigation.
View sourceBecause PIN 600020 sits inside the Chennai South jurisdiction, the handling office for Adyar stays consistent across years, which matters when filings or approvals span cycles.

Because Adyar hosts a cluster of it services businesses, we benchmark each new IT Notice Reply engagement against patterns we already track for the locality.
The Adyar IT Notice Reply workflow is documented end-to-end: WhatsApp document intake, a working file, qualified review, and a filed acknowledgement back to you.

Section 264 allows the Pr.CIT to revise any order at the assessee's instance, provided the assessee has not invoked the regular appellate remedy. The application must be filed within one year of the order; condonation up to two years is at the Pr.CIT's discretion.
No. Section 264(4) bars revision where the order is the subject matter of a pending appeal. The assessee must elect one route. Section 264 is generally preferred for narrow, undisputed issues where the AO had not exercised proper discretion.
Clause (a) preliminary enquiry with prior approval where required; clause (b) show-cause notice of not less than seven days; clause (c) consideration of the assessee's reply; clause (d) speaking order on whether the case is a fit one for issuance of Section 148.
Section 245 allows the department to adjust a refund against an outstanding demand. The proviso mandates twenty-one days prior intimation. The assessee responds on the e-portal choosing 'demand is correct', 'partially incorrect' or 'disagree', with supporting documents.
Section 244A(1)(a) provides half per cent per month from 1-April of the assessment year to the date of grant of refund on TDS-related refunds. Clause (b) covers other refunds from the date of payment of tax. The interest is automatic, not contingent on assessee claim.
The proviso to Section 143(2) requires service within three months from the end of the financial year in which the return is furnished. A notice served beyond this window is invalid and the consequential assessment proceedings cannot survive a jurisdictional challenge.

An income tax notice is a formal communication issued by the income tax authorities under the Income-tax Act 1961 conveying an action, requirement, or finding affecting the recipient's tax position. The Act provides for several distinct categories of notice — intimation under Section 143(1) after return processing, inquiry under Section 142(1) seeking information, scrutiny under Section 143(2) opening an assessment, reassessment under Section 148 read with the post-April-2021 Section 148A framework, rectification under Section 154, adjustment under Section 245, demand under Section 156, and recovery under Section 220 and Section 222. The Central Board of Direct Taxes prescribes the form, content, and procedural requirements for each notice through Rules under Section 295 and contemporaneous Circulars. The Faceless Assessment Scheme under Section 144B routes most communications through the National Faceless Assessment Centre, with notices served electronically through the e-filing portal and the registered email under Rule 127. Each notice carries distinct compliance windows, substantive content requirements, and consequence patterns, making accurate identification of the section under which the notice has been issued the first analytical step in any reply strategy.
The Computer-Assisted Scrutiny Selection module operated by the Directorate of Income Tax (Systems) selects returns for scrutiny under Section 143(2) using statistical risk parameters drawing on the Annual Information Statement, Form 26AS aggregates, Goods and Services Tax Network data, depository feeds, and registrar-of-companies disclosures. Common triggers include mismatch between GSTR-3B outward supplies and ITR turnover, high-value bank deposits relative to declared income, foreign remittances under Liberalised Remittance Scheme exceeding declared sources, large refund claims, and cross-tax-base inconsistencies. The Annual Information Statement framework introduced by CBDT Circular 8/2021 consolidates third-party reports into a single feed that the assessee can review pre-filing, while the corresponding Taxpayer Information Summary provides an aggregated overview. Where pre-filing review identifies AIS errors, the assessee can submit feedback through the e-filing portal to mark entries as duplicate, incorrect, or relating to another person, with the corrected AIS forming the basis for subsequent scrutiny selection.
Section 282 read with Rule 127 governs the mode and place of service of any notice under the Act. Electronic service through the e-filing portal, the registered email, and (where applicable) the mobile number registered with the department is the primary mode under the Faceless framework, with physical service preserved as a backup. The Pradeep Goyal Supreme Court ruling on the Document Identification Number mandate, codified through CBDT Circular 19/2019, requires every notice and order to carry a DIN that can be verified on the e-filing portal — a notice without a verifiable DIN is treated as invalid except in narrow exceptional circumstances. The Anshul Jain Delhi HC ruling and the Tata Communications Bombay HC ruling have applied the DIN requirement strictly, with the assessee entitled to seek verification before responding substantively. Service through the e-Proceedings module triggers the compliance window from the date of dispatch, not the date of access by the assessee, making prompt portal review critical.
Section 142(2A) empowers the Assessing Officer, with the prior approval of the Principal Commissioner or Commissioner, to direct the assessee to get the accounts audited by an accountant nominated by the Principal Commissioner. The conditions are that the accounts are complex or have multiple transactions, that the volume is such, or that the doubt over correctness of the accounts requires special audit. The Section 142(2C) limitation provides that the audit must be completed within a period not exceeding one hundred eighty days from the date of receipt of the direction. The Sahara India Mass Communication Supreme Court ruling has clarified that the satisfaction recorded for invoking Section 142(2A) must be objectively justified, with the assessee entitled to challenge the direction through Article 226 writ before the Madras High Court where the satisfaction is patently unreasonable. The audit cost is borne by the Central Government under Section 142(2D), removing the cost-shifting argument from the consideration set.
Section 142(1) of the Income-tax Act provides the Assessing Officer with authority to call for information from any person, including the assessee, to enable assessment. The provision contains three clauses — Section 142(1)(i) requires the assessee to file a return where one has not been filed, Section 142(1)(ii) requires the assessee to produce accounts and documents specified in the notice, and Section 142(1)(iii) requires the assessee to furnish information on matters specified by the Assessing Officer. The Section 142(2) supplemental power authorises the Assessing Officer to make such inquiry as considered necessary for the purpose of obtaining full information in respect of the income or loss of any person. The Section 142(2A) special audit provision allows the Assessing Officer, with the prior approval of the Principal Commissioner or Commissioner, to direct the assessee to get the accounts audited by a chartered accountant nominated by the Principal Commissioner. The framework is investigatory rather than adjudicatory at this stage.
The Section 142(1) notice specifies the date by which the response is to be furnished, with windows typically ranging from fifteen to thirty days depending on the volume and complexity of information sought. Under the Faceless Assessment Scheme codified in Section 144B, the notice is issued by the National Faceless Assessment Centre and the response is submitted through the e-Proceedings module on the e-filing portal. Extensions can be sought through the same portal with a reasoned application, with the Assessing Officer empowered to grant additional time where bona fide reasons exist. Non-compliance with Section 142(1) attracts the Section 271(1)(b) penalty of ten thousand rupees for each default and may trigger Section 144 best-judgment assessment where the Assessing Officer proceeds without the assessee's input. The faceless framework eliminates direct interaction with the Assessing Officer, with all communication routed through the portal.
The right to personal hearing in scrutiny proceedings has been the subject of significant jurisprudence. Section 144B(7) provides for personal hearing through video conferencing in circumstances prescribed by the Board, with the Sanjay Aggarwal Delhi HC ruling and the Bharat Aluminium Calcutta HC ruling holding that the request for personal hearing in defined circumstances must be granted as a matter of natural justice where adverse adjustments are contemplated. The Kranti Associates Supreme Court ruling on reasoned decision-making applies broadly to require the Assessing Officer to engage with each material submission made by the assessee in the response, with non-engagement vitiating the order. The combination of these rulings makes the personal-hearing request a strategic step in scrutiny where the assessee anticipates adverse adjustments, with the request to be made through the e-Proceedings portal in the prescribed form.
The GKN Driveshafts Supreme Court ruling, although decided in the Section 148 reassessment context, has been extended by High Courts to the broader scrutiny framework — the assessee is entitled to seek the reasons recorded for the adverse position before responding substantively, and the Assessing Officer is required to dispose of the assessee's objections through a speaking order before proceeding. In Section 143(2) scrutiny, this translates to a structured response strategy — first, an information request seeking the basis for the proposed adjustment; second, a substantive response with documentary substantiation addressing each proposed adjustment line; third, where applicable, a personal-hearing request through video conferencing; fourth, post-order, the Section 246A appeal route to the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) within thirty days. The Kranti Associates principle on reasoned decision-making reinforces the speaking-order requirement.
Section 143(2) authorises the Assessing Officer to serve a notice on the assessee selected for scrutiny assessment, requiring the assessee to attend or produce evidence on which the assessee relies in support of the return. The selection is through Computer-Assisted Scrutiny Selection or through manual selection under Section 119 instructions, with the scope of scrutiny limited to either the issues notified in the notice (limited scrutiny) or to all issues (complete scrutiny). The CBDT Instruction 5/2017 and subsequent Circulars prescribe the parameters and percentages for scrutiny selection across CASS cycles, with limited scrutiny being the predominant mode for routine selection. The notice must be served within three months from the end of the financial year in which the return was furnished under the post-2021 amendment to Section 143(2), with the earlier six-month window curtailed by the Finance Act 2021. Non-service within the statutory window is fatal to the scrutiny assessment as held in ACIT v Hotel Blue Moon (SC, 2010).
The Finance Act 2021 substituted Section 147 and Section 148 with the new Section 148A framework effective 1 April 2021. The Supreme Court in Union of India v Ashish Agarwal (2022) addressed the transitional question of notices issued under the old Section 148 between 1 April 2021 and 30 June 2021 — the court directed that such notices be treated as Section 148A(b) show-cause notices under the new framework, with the procedural protections of Section 148A made available retrospectively. The Rajeev Bansal Supreme Court ruling (2024) further clarified the limitation interaction between the Taxation and Other Laws (Relaxation and Amendment of Certain Provisions) Act 2020 and the new framework. The transitional jurisprudence applies to several pending reassessments and remains relevant for assessees with notices issued in the transition window, with the response strategy involving the Section 148A(b) framework and the documented limitation working.
The GKN Driveshafts (India) v ITO Supreme Court ruling (2003) established a procedural architecture for responding to Section 148 reassessment notices that retains direct relevance even under the post-2021 framework. The architecture has three steps — first, the assessee files the return in response to the Section 148 notice within the time stipulated; second, the assessee requests a copy of the reasons recorded by the Assessing Officer for the reopening; third, the assessee files objections to the reasons in writing; fourth, the Assessing Officer is required to dispose of the objections through a speaking order before proceeding with the reassessment. Failure of the Assessing Officer to follow the architecture is fatal to the reassessment as held in subsequent rulings. The architecture survives in the post-2021 framework through Section 148A(b) and (d), with the show-cause and the order on the show-cause performing equivalent procedural functions.
Reassessment notices that suffer from jurisdictional defects — issuance without reasons recorded, mere change of opinion, expiry of limitation, sanction not obtained from the prescribed authority under Section 151 — are challengeable through Article 226 writ before the Madras High Court for assessees with Tamil Nadu jurisdiction. The Calcutta Discount Co Supreme Court ruling, the Madhya Pradesh Industries Supreme Court ruling, and several Madras High Court rulings have applied the writ remedy to set aside reassessment notices at the threshold without requiring the assessee to first exhaust the appellate hierarchy. The writ route is appropriate where the defect is patent and the alternative remedy is inadequate, particularly given the prolonged stay risk during the appellate process under Section 220(6). The strategic choice between the appellate route and the writ route depends on the nature of the defect and the documentary state of play.
What Adyar clients usually ask next: Where Adyar differs: for Adyar IT-services firms managing export-LUT cycles alongside payroll and TDS.
Specified authority for reassessment approval is the senior officer whose prior approval is mandated under Sections 148 and 148A — Principal Chief Commissioner, Chief Commissioner, Principal Commissioner or Commissioner depending on the time elapsed from end of relevant assessment year. The approval is a jurisdictional condition.
Section 147 reassessment is the assessment or reassessment of income that has escaped assessment, undertaken after compliance with Sections 148A and 148. The Explanation extends the power to any other escapement coming to notice during the proceedings. Limitation for completion under Section 153(2).
Best-judgment assessment under Section 144 is the assessment made by the Assessing Officer to the best of his judgment where the assessee fails to file a return, comply with Section 142(1) or 143(2) notices, or fails to substantiate claims. A pre-decisional show-cause notice is mandated.
Faceless assessment scheme is the dynamic-jurisdiction scheme notified under Section 144B whereby assessment proceedings are conducted without physical interface — through e-Proceedings on the e-portal, with assessment units randomly allocated by the National Faceless Assessment Centre. Personal hearing through video conferencing on request.
National Faceless Assessment Centre is the apex authority constituted under the faceless assessment scheme that allocates cases to assessment units, verification units, technical units and review units across India, and serves as the single point of contact with the assessee through the e-portal.
Faceless penalty scheme is the dynamic-jurisdiction framework for imposition of penalties — Section 270A, Section 271AAC, Section 271AAD, Section 272A and others — through the National Faceless Penalty Centre. The penalty unit issues the show-cause; the review unit examines proposed orders before they are finalised.
Show-cause notice under Section 274 is the procedural prerequisite for imposition of any penalty under Chapter XXI. The notice must specify the limb under which penalty is proposed — under-reporting or misreporting under Section 270A, for instance — to give the assessee a meaningful opportunity to respond.
Under-reporting of income is defined in Section 270A(2) through six situations — income assessed greater than income returned, income above maximum amount not chargeable to tax where no return is filed, income reassessed greater than income previously assessed, loss claimed but lower loss assessed, and so on. Penalty at fifty per cent of tax payable on under-reported income.
Misreporting of income is defined in Section 270A(9) through six situations — misrepresentation or suppression of facts, failure to record investments in books, claim of expenditure not substantiated, recording of false entry, failure to record receipts bearing on total income, failure to report international transactions. Penalty at two hundred per cent of tax payable.
Immunity application under Section 270AA is the application in Form 68 seeking immunity from Section 270A penalty and Section 276C / 276CC prosecution, conditional on payment of tax and interest per order and non-filing of appeal. To be filed within one month of end of month of receipt of order; not available in misreporting cases.
Section 271AAC penalty is the ten per cent penalty on tax payable under Section 115BBE for income that is referred to in Section 68, 69, 69A, 69B, 69C or 69D — unexplained credits, unexplained investments, unexplained money, unexplained expenditure. Combined incidence including Section 115BBE base reaches seventy-eight per cent.
Section 115BBE special tax rate is the sixty per cent rate (plus twenty-five per cent surcharge and four per cent cess) applicable to income referred to in Sections 68 to 69D. Sub-section (2) bars set-off of any loss or deduction against such income. The provision targets unexplained credits, investments and expenditure.

“Notice for AY 2016-17 issued in Aug-2023 invoking the 10-year limit. We demonstrated escaped income did not cross ₹50 lakh threshold and that sanction under Section 151 was from the wrong authority. Section 148A(d) order set aside on writ; reassessment dropped.”
“CASS-flagged scrutiny under Section 143(2) on bogus LTCG. Filed share register, demat statements, STT-paid contract notes and AO's own remand findings. Faceless Assessment Unit accepted explanation; addition of ₹38 lakh deleted in Section 143(3) order.”
“AO levied 200% misreporting penalty on disallowance of expenses. Argued the disallowance was on a debatable issue — possible-view doctrine — not misreporting. Faceless Penalty Centre accepted plea; penalty restricted to 50% under-reporting. Saved ₹4.6 lakh.”
“CPC adjusted ₹2.1 lakh refund of AY 2024-25 against an old AY 2018-19 demand that was already stayed by CIT(A). Filed disagreement on outstanding demand portal with stay order; refund released within 6 weeks.”
“CPC proposed adjustment disallowing HRA citing AIS mismatch. Filed reply within 30 days with rent receipts, landlord PAN, bank rent payment trail and revised computation. Adjustment dropped; refund of ₹78,000 issued.”
“Section 143(3) addition of ₹62 lakh on unexplained cash deposits during demonetisation. Filed Form 35 with Rule 46A petition; produced sales register, cash book and pre-demonetisation cash trends. CIT(A) deleted addition; Section 220(6) stay of demand obtained pending appeal.”
