A taxpayer is facing issues with the IT department regarding AY 20-21 capital gains tax. Despite having brought forward long-term capital losses to offset the gains, the department has repeatedly issued a demand for 20% tax on the capital gains. The taxpayer has filed rectification requests, but the issue remains unresolved, leading to concerns about an endless loop. They are seeking advice on alternative solutions and how to get the department to acknowledge the carried-forward losses.

For AY 20-21, I have earlier years b/f long term capital losses. The long term capital gains for AY 20-21 have to be offset against b/f losses but the IT department has not considered these b/f losses and raised a demand for 20% on the capital gains. I disagreed with the demand, mentioned the reason and submitted the rectification request for reprocessing the returns.
They have reprocessed the returns and raised the same demand without considering the b/f losses again. The officer is not even reading the reason which I submitted while disagreeing with the demand.
Should I again disagree with the demand and submit the rectification request. I am worried this will go in a loop. What is the other alternative?
