    TAX NOTICES

    It is common that at times a dispute may arise between the tax a calculated and paid by business entity at the time of filing income tax and the tax which is calculated by the income tax officer for the entity. In case the tax officer finds that the tax paid by the entity is less than the actual tax liability, then the department shall serve a legal notice demanding the requirement of the due tax payable by the entity. Time limit to respond to this legal tax notice is within the period of 30 days from the date its receipt.

    The notice may be in the form of a text SMS under the section 143(1). It may be in the form of online demand notice on the e-filing website. Strict legal action can be taken by the income tax department if the business entity does not responds to the notice within the given time frame.
