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.

From the same George Town team we also serve Royapuram and other nearby localities without re-onboarding clients.

No. The substituted Section 148 expressly requires a Section 148A enquiry-and-show-cause to be completed and a speaking order under clause (d) to be passed before any Section 148 notice can be validly issued, except in the narrow search-related carve-outs.
The substituted Section 149 prescribes three years from the end of the relevant assessment year in normal cases, extendable to ten years where the escaped income represented by an asset, expenditure or entry is fifty lakh or more.
Civil Appeal 3005 of 2022 deemed Section 148 notices issued under the old regime between April and June 2021 to be Section 148A(b) show-cause notices under the new regime, requiring the department to furnish material and provide a fresh reply window.
Civil Appeal 8629 of 2024 clarified that TOLA-2020 extensions tail into the new reopening regime for assessment years 2013-14 to 2017-18, providing a stage-by-stage limitation chart that the department must follow when issuing Section 148A notices post-substitution.
The Supreme Court framework — recorded reasons on request, objections filed, speaking order disposing objections — was a judge-made safeguard that the substituted Section 148A has now absorbed into statute. The principle survives in spirit and informs interpretation of the new clauses.
Kranti Associates versus Masood Ahmed Khan requires every quasi-judicial order to record reasons disclosing application of mind. Generic rejection orders — whether on rectification, revision or appeal — fail this test and are vulnerable to being set aside on judicial review.

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.
The strategic choice across the appellate hierarchy depends on the nature of the dispute, the documentary state, the limitation residue, and the financial exposure. For routine assessment disputes, the Section 246A appeal to CIT(A) followed by Section 253 appeal to ITAT is the standard sequence, with Section 260A High Court appeal reserved for substantial questions of law. For jurisdictional defects and natural-justice violations, the Article 226 writ remedy before the High Court is often more effective than the appellate hierarchy, since the relief is at the threshold without requiring exhaustion of appellate remedies. For mistakes apparent from the record, the Section 154 rectification route is the most efficient. For substantive policy questions affecting multiple assessment years, the Section 263 or Section 264 revision route may be appropriate. The strategic choice is the analytical exercise that frames the overall approach to the notice and the subsequent appellate strategy.
Section 246A provides the first appeal route to the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) against orders specified in sub-section (1) including Section 143(3) assessment orders, Section 144 best-judgment orders, Section 147 reassessment orders, Section 154 rectification orders that enhance the assessment, and Section 271 penalty orders. The appeal is filed in Form 35 with the prescribed fee within thirty days of the order under Section 249(2), with the appellate authority empowered to condone delay under Section 249(3) on sufficient cause. The Faceless Appeal Scheme codified in Section 250 routes the appeal through the National Faceless Appeal Centre, with the assessment unit, verification unit, technical unit, and review unit operating in distinct separations. The appellate authority's powers include confirming, modifying, enhancing, or annulling the assessment, with enhancement subject to additional opportunity of hearing under Section 251.
Section 253 provides the second appeal route to the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal against the order of the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) under Section 250. The appeal is filed in Form 36 with the prescribed fee within sixty days of the order under Section 253(3), with the Tribunal empowered to condone delay on sufficient cause. The Tribunal sits in benches across India with the Chennai bench having jurisdiction over Tamil Nadu, Puducherry, and certain other regions. The Tribunal's powers under Section 254 include passing such orders as it thinks fit, with the Section 254(2) rectification window for mistakes apparent from the record being four years from the date of the order. The Tribunal's order is final on facts but subject to further appeal on substantial questions of law under Section 260A to the High Court. The Chennai bench's recent jurisprudence including the Tapas Dutta and Pradeep Goyal application has been influential.
The CPC adjustment framework under Section 143(1) compares conceptually with the pre-filled return designs documented by the OECD Forum on Tax Administration in its Tax Administration 3.0 vision. Both rely on third-party data ingestion (AIS in India, equivalent third-party reporting overseas) and apply algorithmic checks against the taxpayer's return. The Indian framework however retains a manual adjudication backstop through Section 154 rectification and Section 246A appeal, while certain OECD jurisdictions (such as Estonia and Norway) operate near-final pre-filled returns with minimal taxpayer intervention required. The Empowered Committee 2009 First Discussion Paper on GST identified third-party data integration as a foundational architecture principle, a vision that the CBDT Circular 8/2021 on AIS has substantially implemented for direct taxes. The pre-filing review of AIS by the assessee, with feedback to mark entries as duplicate or incorrect, is the Indian counterpart of the OECD taxpayer-confirmation step, with the adjustment proceeding to Section 143(1) only after the AIS-feedback window has closed.
Where the Section 143(1) intimation produces an adjustment that the assessee disputes substantively, three escalation pathways are available. The first is a Section 154 rectification application to the CPC where the error is apparent on the record — typographical, arithmetical, or a clear misapplication of law. The Section 154(7) limitation is four years from the end of the financial year in which the order sought to be rectified was passed. The second is a Section 246A appeal to the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) where the substantive position is contested, with the appeal filed within thirty days of receipt of the intimation in Form 35 with the prescribed fee. The third, where the intimation involves a jurisdictional defect or violation of natural justice (such as DIN absence), is the Article 226 writ remedy before the Madras High Court for assessees with Tamil Nadu jurisdiction. The escalation choice depends on the nature of the dispute and the relief sought.
Section 143(1) provides the framework for return processing by the Centralised Processing Centre at Bengaluru, with the intimation issued after computer-driven verification of arithmetical accuracy and prima facie inconsistencies. The first proviso to Section 143(1)(a) authorises six categories of adjustment without intervention by an Assessing Officer — arithmetical errors, incorrect claims apparent from the return, disallowance of loss claimed in a belated return under Section 139(3), disallowance of deductions claimed under Sections 10AA and 80-IA to 80-IE, disallowance of any expenditure indicated in the audit report not factored in the return, and addition of income appearing in Form 26AS or Form 16 not included in the return. The second proviso requires the CPC to give the assessee an opportunity to respond before the adjustment is made, with a thirty-day response window from the date of the intimation. The framework is purely procedural at the CPC stage; substantive disputes typically escalate to Section 154 rectification or Section 246A appeal.
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.
An effective Section 142(1) response is structured to address each leg of the Assessing Officer's questionnaire with documentary substantiation. The covering letter identifies the notice (date, DIN, assessment year), confirms compliance with each clause, and indexes the enclosures. The enclosures are organised in the sequence of the questionnaire with each document labelled to the specific query. Where a clarification or additional time is needed for any leg, this is articulated transparently with reasons. The reconciliation working between the return position and the underlying records is provided in a structured tabular form. Where third-party reports (AIS, Form 26AS, GSTR-3B) are involved, the reconciliation traces each entry. The response is uploaded through the e-Proceedings portal with the acknowledgement number retained for the assessee's file. Bulky enclosures are referenced and submitted in batches if portal size limits apply, with the covering letter noting the batching arrangement.
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.
What George Town clients usually ask next: For George Town engagements specifically — for George Town units balancing production cycles with monthly GST and quarterly TDS compliance.
Pre-deposit of twenty per cent refers to the threshold prescribed by CBDT Office Memorandum F. No. 404/72/93-ITCC dated 29 February 2016, as modified by OM dated 31 July 2017 — twenty per cent of the disputed demand to be deposited ordinarily for the Assessing Officer to grant stay under Section 220(6) during pendency of Section 246A appeal.
Recovery under Section 222 is the recovery of arrears under the Second Schedule procedure — by attachment and sale of movable and immovable property of the assessee, by appointment of a receiver, or by arrest and detention. Triggered after expiry of Section 220(1) demand window and where stay has not been granted.
Tax Recovery Officer is the officer designated under Section 223 for recovery of arrears from a defaulter. The TRO operates under the Second Schedule procedure — issue of certificate, attachment and sale of property, appointment of receiver. Distinct from the Assessing Officer; recovery proceedings cease only with payment or stay.
Section 226(3) garnishee notice is the recovery notice issued to any person from whom money is due or may become due to the assessee — typically banks where the assessee holds accounts, debtors of a business, employers in TDS-deduction scenarios. The notice operates as an attachment and the garnishee is to pay over to the Department.
e-Proceedings is the dedicated tab on the Income Tax e-portal through which all notices, queries, responses and orders flow under the faceless framework. The assessee uploads replies as PDF along with annexures. Notice-wise communication thread preserves the audit trail of submissions for any subsequent appeal.
Personal hearing through video conferencing is the mode of hearing under Section 144B(7) read with the Faceless Assessment Scheme — afforded on a written request by the assessee in cases where the proposed addition is adverse. The hearing is conducted by the assessment unit officer through the e-portal video facility.
Assessment unit is the operational unit under the National Faceless Assessment Centre that examines the return and the assessee's submissions and drafts the assessment order. Dynamic allocation across India ensures arm's-length adjudication. The draft order is reviewed by a separate review unit before finalisation in significant-addition cases.
Verification unit is the operational unit under the National Faceless Assessment Centre that conducts third-party verifications during scrutiny — calls for information from banks, vendors, parties to transactions under Section 133(6). The verification report flows back to the assessment unit for incorporation in the assessment.
Technical unit is the operational unit under the National Faceless Assessment Centre that provides legal, valuation, transfer pricing or accounting opinions to the assessment unit on technical issues. Engaged where the assessment turns on a specialised question; the opinion guides but does not bind the assessment unit.
Review unit is the operational unit under the National Faceless Assessment Centre that examines the draft assessment order, particularly in cases of significant proposed additions or where the assessment unit has rejected the assessee's claims. The review unit may suggest variations before the order is finalised.
Standard Operating Procedure for assessment is the operational guideline issued by CBDT for conduct of scrutiny — defining timelines for issue of questionnaire, evidence-collection windows, restrictions on remand of issues, requirements for draft order in significant-addition cases. The SOP supplements the statutory framework with administrative discipline.
Survey under Section 133A is the inspection of business premises during business hours for verification of books, stocks, cash and documents. Distinct from search under Section 132 — no seizure of books or documents (only impounding), no examination of residence, recording of statements without administration of oath.

“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.”
