I received one notice for one of my NRI client (Attached herewith details) u/s 139(9). It is mentioned that in the Return, Higher Amount of Tax has been calculated whereas the Tax amount is absolutely correct. Can anyone please go through the Error and probable resolution and suggest what exactly needs to be done in this case.
Error Description as per Notice Received In the return of income filed, higher amount of tax has been computed, without furnishing the complete details of the income on which this tax has been computed, in any of the schedules. Hence, as the schedules in the return of income, relating to computation of income under respective head of income have not been duly filled in, the return of income filed is regarded as defective, as provided in Explanataion (a) under section 139(9).
Probable resolution as per Notice Received The relevant schedules in the return of income, based on which income is computed under respective heads, have to be duly filled up, showing the basis on which higher amount of tax has been computed. The correction of this defect is to be made in the 'corrected return', if there is no change in the income returned. If the correction results in a change of income then, the same is to be corrected, by filing a revised return.
It seems the income shown in ITR is less when compared to tax amount computed and shown in ITR. Probably incomes schedules are not filled in properly. Please check.
If not, you can forward your defective return notice, full ITR form to me so that i can guide you better. dipikajainshah@gmail.com
