U/s 245, refunds to be issued by the Income Tax authority are adjusted against IT demands if any for earlier years. While doing so, the IT dept, just sends a intimation showing the amount of demand adjusted and the year for which it has been adjusted. However detailed workings for arrival of demand or the nature of demand is specified no where.
How can one know the demand that was pending. can he request for an intimation or should he write a letter to the assessing officer to explain the demand
