Understanding Income Tax Notices
Income tax notices, issued by the ITD, serve as formal communication regarding potential discrepancies in your tax filings or assessments. These notices come in various forms, each with a specific purpose. Here are some common examples:
- Intimation under Section 143(1): This notice informs you of a potential tax liability based on the ITD’s processing of your tax return.
- Scrutiny Notice under Section 143(2): This notice initiates a more in-depth examination of your tax return, potentially requiring additional documents or clarifications.
- Show Cause Notice: This notice warns of potential penalties or adjustments to your tax liability and provides an opportunity for you to respond before further action is taken.
