IT Notices

Receiving an IT notice can be a stressful experience for taxpayers in India. IT notices are issued by the Income Tax Department to communicate information, ask for clarification or request further information from taxpayers. It is important for taxpayers to respond to IT notices in a timely and accurate manner to avoid penalties and legal consequences. In this article, we will discuss the types of IT notices and how TaxOver can help businesses and individuals in responding to IT notices.

Types of IT Notices

IT notices can be broadly classified into two types: Scrutiny Notices and Non-Scrutiny Notices.  

        Scrutiny Notices:

Scrutiny notices are issued when the Income Tax Department selects a taxpayer's return for detailed examination.This is done to verify the accuracy and correctness of the income declared in the return. Scrutiny notices can be further classified into two types:

a. Limited Scrutiny Notices: These notices are issued when the Income Tax Department has a specific query or issue with a particular aspect of the return. The scope of inquiry is limited to that particular issue.

b. Complete Scrutiny Notices: These notices are issued when the Income Tax Department wants to conduct a comprehensive examination of the return. The scope of inquiry is broad and covers all aspects of the return.

Non-Scrutiny Notices:

Non-scrutiny notices are issued when the Income Tax Department wants to communicate information, ask for clarification or request further information from taxpayers. These notices are usually issued under Section 139(9) of the Income Tax Act, 1961, which deals with defects in the return filed by the taxpayer.
