Every tax notice has a specific reason and a specific response. RLVC reads your notice, explains what it means in plain language, and submits the correct response on your behalf — protecting you from demands, penalties, and prosecution.
Get Help NowReceiving a notice from the Income Tax Department does not always mean there is a serious problem. Many notices are routine — intimations about refund adjustments, requests for minor clarifications, or reminders about non-filing. However, some notices relate to scrutiny assessments, re-opening of assessments, or tax demands — and these require prompt, accurate responses.
The most important thing is: do not ignore a notice. Every notice has a response deadline. Ignoring it leads to ex-parte assessments, large demands, and in serious cases, prosecution. RLVC responds on your behalf — correctly and on time.
Many taxpayers ignore notices hoping they will go away. They don't. An unanswered notice leads to an ex-parte assessment — the AO decides without your input, almost always unfavourably.
Filing a response under the wrong provision — or responding to a Section 143(2) scrutiny as if it were a 143(1) intimation — can be treated as non-compliance. Each notice type demands a specific response format.
Most notices carry a 15–30 day response window. Missing it triggers automatic escalation — a demand, penalty, or in the case of Section 148, a best-judgment assessment with no further recourse at that stage.
High-value transactions flagged in AIS — property sales, large deposits, securities transactions — must be explained with documentary evidence. Vague or incomplete explanations lead to income additions and demands.
Section 147/148 re-openings can relate to returns filed 3–10 years ago. Taxpayers often no longer have the relevant documents — resulting in additions that could have been defended with proper records.
Without expert guidance, taxpayers often agree to demands to "make it go away" — paying tax that is not legally due, when a proper response would have eliminated or reduced the demand entirely.
RLVC reads your notice thoroughly and explains in plain language exactly what the department is asking — and what the consequences are of various responses.
A complete, accurate response is drafted and submitted on the Income Tax portal within the prescribed deadline — with all required documents and explanations.
All supporting documents — bank statements, investment proofs, contracts, bills — are organised and submitted in the format required by the Assessing Officer.
For scrutiny assessments (u/s 143(2)), RLVC represents you before the Assessing Officer — preparing written submissions and attending hearings on your behalf.
Where the demand arises from a clear error in the assessment, RLVC files a rectification application to correct it without going to appeal.
If the response does not resolve the matter, RLVC advises on CIT(A) appeal options and can handle the full appeal process to protect your interests.

No. Many are routine — Section 143(1) intimations are automatically generated and often just confirm your refund or a minor adjustment. Others, like Section 143(2) scrutiny or Section 148 re-opening, require careful handling. RLVC will tell you exactly what type of notice you have received and how serious it is.
Yes. RLVC has experience in representing clients before the Assessing Officer during scrutiny assessments — preparing written submissions, responding to queries, and attending personal hearings where required.
Ignoring a notice leads to an ex-parte assessment where the AO makes the assessment without your input — often resulting in a large addition to income and a demand. In severe cases, non-compliance can also lead to prosecution. Responding on time is always the right course of action.
Yes. Section 147/148 re-opening notices can relate to assessment years up to 10 years old in certain cases. RLVC handles these — helping reconstruct records, draft submissions, and challenge re-openings that are procedurally defective or without sufficient basis. The earlier you reach out after receiving the notice, the better the options available.
