Ao does not decide rectification request

Others 211 views 1 replies

Rectification rights transferred to Jurisdictional AO . 

Rectification request  submitted to the AO concerned on 8th JANUARY 2018. Three Email reminders were  given. Last WRITTEN reminder was given  in early Dec 2018.

Citizen’s charter gives a time limit of 2 months and the the IT Act gives a time limit of 6 months for a decision on Rectification requests.  Yet, NO DECISION HAS BEEN GIVEN BY THE AO FOR NEARLY ONE FULL YEAR.

What is the remedy available for an assessee? What should be his next step?

An application for rectification should be deemed to have been granted, if the concerned authority had not responded on petition or has not rejected in writing within specified time
