Showcause Notice for overseas income on 2014

This discussion addresses a user's concern about a show cause notice received for overseas income used to purchase property in 2014. The user is seeking clarification on whether a Chartered Accountant (CA) or representative can appear on their behalf, as they are currently outside India. They are also concerned about potential penalties and repercussions if they cannot respond within the 15-day time limit, especially after a previous experience where bank accounts were frozen for a missed deadline.
