SUMMON U/S 131(1A) INCOME TAX ACT

FOR EXAMPLE IF THE INCOME TAX OFFICER IN MUMBAI ISSUES NOTICE U/S 131 TO AN ASSESEE BASED IN DELHI, IS IT MANDATORY FOR THE ASSESEE TO VISIT MUMBAI AND APPEAR?

IF YES, WHO WILL BEAR THE COST OF TRAVEL & ACCOMODATION?

Summary: While a summons under Section 131(1A) is a mandatory order, you are not helpless. You can request extensions, representational support, or alternative methods like video conferencing for out-of-station hearings. You are responsible for your own travel costs, though these may be deductible if incurred for business purposes. Always seek professional assistance from a CA to draft your response.
