Receiving Notices under Section 143(2)? Here’s What You Need to Know!

Over the last few days, many clients and fellow professionals have reached out about receiving notices under Section 143(2) of the Income Tax Act. If you’re seeing this, you’re not alone – and there’s no need to panic.
Let’s break it down: 👇

🔍 What is Section 143(2)?
It is a scrutiny notice issued by the Income Tax Department when they want to further verify or examine the details in your filed Income Tax Return (ITR).
This doesn’t mean something is wrong — it simply means the return has been selected for deeper assessment.

⚖️ Legal Validity
✅ Valid if issued within 3 months from the end of the financial year in which the return was filed.
✅ These notices are now served electronically, with assessments conducted under the Faceless Assessment scheme (Section 144B).

If your return was filed in Oct 2024 (for AY 2024–25), notices dated June 2025 are well within time.

📁 What Should You Do?
✅ Step 1: Login to the e-Filing Portal
✅ Step 2: Access the notice under “e-Proceedings”
✅ Step 3: Submit basic documents in support of your ITR before the deadline (usually within 15 days)

🗂️ Recommended Initial Documents to Upload
For businesses, LLPs, and companies:

a. ITR Acknowledgment and Computation
b. Audited Financials & Tax Audit Report
c. Balance Sheet & P&L with Schedules
d. Bank Statements for FY 2023–24
e. Form 26AS + AIS/TIS – reconciled
f. GST returns (if applicable)
g. Supporting docs for deductions, loans, or major credits

🔧 Once a questionnaire is issued, reply to each point with appropriate documentation.
💬 Final Word

This is routine compliance, and with timely, accurate responses — the entire process can be completed smoothly under the faceless mechanism. As CAs, we must guide clients to be proactive rather than reactive.
