30 November 2011 For AY 2009-10, I filed return within time disclosing some income under capital gain duly filled all information in relevant columns of ITR. However no documents e.g. purchase deed, sale deed, evidence of investment u/s 54 were attached with the return since there was no requirement to attach such documents. Department did not issue any notice till 30/09/11. However now I received a letter dt. 18/11/11 from the A.O. with the subject :" Requisition of Information relating to AY 2009-10-regarding ", in which he has required to furnish all above documents within 7 days.
Now my question is whether department can issue such type of letter. There is no mention of any section in the letter that under which section he has issued the letter / notice requiring such documents. Whether I am bound to furnish such documents. Whether A.O. on receipt of such documents issue notice u/s 147/148. Please advise.
