Notice received from income tax department for non filing

First file your ITR as you still have time till 31st March 2016 to file belated return even if such notice wasn't received. After filing ITR, efiling module will automatically pick the ack no and date of filing. Submit that as response.

Can I file paper return for this purpose.? or E-filing is mandatory.?

It is not mandatory to be filed electronically. however E-return is better choice. 

i will recommed e filing.

Yes, in line with the reply given by the learned members, who have suggested you to comply with e-filing. Just as a matter of fact, it is also important for you to check for any TDS credits as per Form 16 is getting reflected in your Form 26AS in TRACES. You need to identify is there any other credits sitting in TRACES before filing your return. 

To resolve the issue, here you could find the reply draft to IT Department , Any suggestion from your end? ,Can I proceed ahead with this.?

Dear Sir,

For your information, the reply letter is not now necessary. only the E-response is enough. After submission of E response, then the case shall be transferred to the jurisdictional AO from CPC, Bangalore. Then you will receive a notice from the AO in case of any discripancies exist.

You can still File ITR on or before 31st March 2016 for AY 2014-15 as Belated Return.

But if your Total Taxable Income (from 1st April 2013 to 31st March 2014) exceeds Exemption Limit, AO can impose Penalty u/s 271F of Rs.5000.

 You must have received bcoz 

1) there may be AIR transaction

2) There may be un-utilised TDS

3) Your income b4 deductions may be more than  permissible limit .

For S.no 2 ad 3 you have to file return and show it to taxman that you owe nothing to Govt.
 

If  they are not valid then  simply say in compliance reply that your  income is less than  permissible limit..  

first a fall you should simply fill belated return even you do not have taxable income on or before 31st March 2016 for AY 2014-15
as per section 139 

it is compulsary to fill a ITR even you have or you dont have taxable income

mine is the same case but i have a non filing notice for the F.Y. 12-13 so can i file return before doing compliance and under which sec ??
