overview

What is Income Tax Notice?

Receiving an income tax notice feels alarming — but it doesn’t always mean you’re in trouble. Most notices are routine: a mismatch in your Form 26AS, an income discrepancy in your AIS, or a simple clarification request from the department. What matters is responding accurately, on time, and with the right documentation.

At Swasthik Capitals Tax Consultancy in Chennai, we handle Income Tax Notice Reply services for individuals, startups, SMEs, and corporates. Our team resolves notices under Sections 139(9), 143(1), 143(2), 148, 245, and more — from expert drafting to portal submission and full follow-up until the matter is closed.

💡 Did you know? Receiving an Income Tax Notice does not always mean a penalty — it may simply require clarification, document submission, or correction of details in your tax return.
