Grandma received a letter from it dept.

Hi, My grandmother received a letter from the IT dept. saying she had not filed the IT return for the financial year 2013-14. And asked for a response for the same in 20 days. Her income is only the interest from FD every year. Doesn't cross any slab. But last 2 years she forgot to file form 15H with the bank so they kept deducting TDS. So what should she do about this? Also, the letter is dated February but it was received only today. So I suppose I should count the 20 days from today? Pls help and advice.

She can submit the response online thru incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in

Once you login, you can see your account and can select an appropriate reason against the notice. If you know how to file, you can fle online return now and claim the refund.

20 days counts from the date of receipt of notice but not the date mentioned in such notice.

 

 

Okay. But what should I write in the Remark column in response in the IT website? I will state that the income received during that year is below taxable limit. Should I specifically mention what all income?. Should I mention that I forgot to file form 15H for that year?
Yes....Please select as below taxable limits. If possible the return and claim refund as its no harm :)
