Notice Handling (GST, Income Tax & TDS)

What tax notice handling covers

A tax notice is a formal communication from the income-tax or GST department asking you to explain, correct or substantiate something in your filings. Most notices are not accusations of fraud — they are queries triggered by data mismatches between your return and third-party information. But every notice carries a deadline, and ignoring it is what turns a routine query into a demand, penalty or recovery action. Professional notice handling means reading the notice correctly, gathering the right evidence, and drafting a precise, on-time reply.

We handle the full range — from income-tax intimations and scrutiny notices to GST scrutiny and demand notices — representing you before the department so you are not navigating intimidating jargon and portals alone.

Common notices we handle

• Income-tax section 143(1) intimations — adjustments and refund/demand computations.
• Section 139(9) defective-return notices and section 142(1)/143(2) scrutiny notices.
• Section 245 (refund adjusted against demand) and section 148 reassessment notices.
• GST ASMT-10 scrutiny notices and DRC-01/DRC-01A demand notices.
• Mismatch notices on TDS, ITC, GSTR-1 vs 3B and AIS discrepancies.

Why notices arrive — and why speed matters

The department now cross-matches your returns against AIS, Form 26AS, GST data and bank reports automatically. A mismatch — unreported interest, ITC claimed without a matching purchase, GSTR-1 not tallying with GSTR-3B — generates a notice. Each one specifies a response window, often as short as 7, 15 or 30 days. Reply well and the matter usually closes; miss the deadline and the officer can pass an order on the information available, leading to a demand, interest and penalty that is far harder and costlier to reverse on appeal.
