I received a demand notice u/s 143(1) because I made a mistake when filing my return. I did not mention that I had already paid the taxes and did not enter the payment details. I can see that the payment was made correctly in TRACES.

I filed a rectification request with the CPC based on the 143(1) notice and the online rectification status now says "Submitted".

However, I see that under "Pending Actions" on the online dashboard (on incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in), there is a "Response to Outstanding Tax Demand" heading where a Response can be submitted.

My question is:

- Do I need to submit a response here or should I wait until the Rectification request gets processed and I hear something more from the CPC regarding this issue?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Dear Mr. Hareesh Kumar,

Thanks for your response. I am not planning to file another rectification request.

My query was whether I should respond as prompted by under "Pending Actions" on the dashboard of my online account.

Thanks,

Dear Sadhan,

It is up to you, you can wait until rectification request has been processed or else respond to pending actions submit that you are not agreeing to the demands and mention the reason in the provided space. It is one of the mode to communicate status.
