Income tax notice u/s 139(9)

294 views 3 replies

Hello Everyone 

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 Descripttion 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.

PS: Attached is the screenshot of the notice. 

Regards

Neha

the X M L uploaded by you is without any details in any of schedules of various heads of income so check your X M L first

Thank you for your prompt revert. I have double checked the ITR Form and couldn't find any incomplete schedule. There is One House Property Sale for which Capital Gain schedule is filled up and one Bank Interest Income for which Income from Other Sources is filled up. There is nothing else which is left and ITR was prepared through the Income Tax utility only. It doesn't generate XML file to upload if any mandatory information is not filled in. The notice says higher amount of Tax has been computed. I do not understand the reason and further course of action.

 

Notice says that schedules are blank so do one thing as you say X M L is fully filled in just reply to notice by attaching the X M L and any working papers depending on which you had filed return
