Income Tax Notice Reply – Scrutiny, Reassessment & Appeals (Pan-India)

Income tax scrutiny, reassessment and demand proceedings are now largely faceless. Notices, replies and hearings run on the e-filing portal and through video conferencing, so we can act for you wherever you are in India. We prepare replies, compile the evidence and represent you through assessment and appeal.

How we work

  1. Diagnose. We read the notice, check its validity and limitation, and list what the officer is actually asking for.
  2. Evidence. We reconcile AIS, TIS and Form 26AS against your books and bank statements and organise the documents.
  3. Reply. A structured written submission with annexures, uploaded on the portal before the due date.
  4. Follow-through. Video hearings, draft assessment orders, rectification and appeal if needed.

Frequently asked questions

My notice cites the Income-tax Act, 1961. Is that still valid after 1 April 2026?

Yes. The Income-tax Act, 2025 came into force on 1 April 2026, but proceedings for earlier years continue under the 1961 Act. Most notices issued in 2026 still refer to the old section numbers.

Do I need to visit the tax office?

Usually not. Faceless proceedings are conducted online. Where a jurisdictional officer asks for a personal appearance, we attend in Delhi NCR.
