Income Tax Notice
An Income Tax Notice is an official communication issued by the Income Tax Department of India seeking clarification, additional information, or correction regarding your filed Income Tax Return. Receiving a notice does not always mean a penalty — it often requires a timely and accurate response.
Professional handling of income tax notices is crucial to avoid fines, scrutiny, or legal consequences.
