Mr. Varadarajan, your grievance is certainly not unfounded. But please do spare a thought for the hapless clerical staff of the Income Tax Department. Today, the staff shortage at the level Tax Assistants and Senior Tax Assistants – who are required to do the necessary data entry jobs – is hovering around 50% to 60%. Per se, each such staff is having to do the job of two persons. Despite the massive shortage, the Income Tax Department is functioning pretty well. Revenue collections are soaring, the Department is metamorphosing into more of a Service Provider than a Policing Agency, grievances are dipping and many other positive developments are unfolding. Basically the Department is in the cusp of a change and surely things will change for the better once the transition is over.
Hello everyone,
If any one have any problem regarding the income tax matter then please submit your querry at my e-mail id ie. [email protected], and got quick reply within 3 working days.

Rahul
Dear Roopa Rao,
Have you received intimation u/s 143(1) for A.Y.2008-09. If you have not received so, please write to the assessing officer to provide to you an intimation u/s 143(1). Please also ask reason for the demand if it is not evident from the intimation. In certain cases, the A.O. does not allow deduction u/s 80 C for investments or deduction u/s 24 with respect to interest for house property without submitting copy of evidence. However, for online filing of the return, these are not initially required. A.O. has to ask for these documents if not satisfied.
I AM A SALARIED ASSESSEE. I AM ASSESSED IN INCOMETAX OFFICER WARD 14(2) BANGALORE.
FOR THE AY 2008-09, THE CPC BANGALORE WRONGLY RAISED A DEMAND OF RS.27,978/ AND INTEREST OF RS.7,170/ EVEN THOUGH TAX HAS BEEN DEDUCTED AT SOURCE FROM MY EMPLOYER VIZ MPHASIS, BANGALORE. APART FROM THIS THE REFUND DUE FOR THE AY 2010-11 AMOUNTING TO RS.6,770 HAS BEEN WRONGLY ADJUSTED TOWARDS THIS DEMAND.AFTER VISITING THE OFFICE THREE TO FOUR TIMES AND ALSO BY SENDING LETTERS TO THE ASSESSING OFFICER NO INTIMATION HAS BEEN RECEIVED FROM THE ASSESSING OFFICER EITHER ABOUT THE DEMAND REDUCTION NOR ABOUT THE REFUND OF RS.6,770/. MY PAN NO IS AFFPR8104N AND CPC REFERENCE NO IS CPC/0809/D2/900031809. I HOPE BY THIS LETTER DATED 21/3/2013 OF THE DI(SYSSTEMS) BANGALORE ACTION WILL BE TAKEN EVEN ON THESE SMALL REFUNDS AND REFUND ISSUED AT THE EARLIEST
ROOPA RAo
It is rather surprising to note that the tax paid for the assessment year 2011-12 and the refund thereon could be settled in 2013 by personally approaching the concerned Accounts Officer of the region, though all the details have appeared in form 26AS much earlier. Is it the way of functioning of Incometax office. Is it possible everytime for a senior citizen to approach the Office of Income tax to redress his grievences.Why there is no clearcut policy to settle the disputes which invariably takes place because of their slackness in their working. Why there is no time bound action from their side. Just because the clerical staff is not doing his duties and clearing the data entry on a daily basis everybody is put into un explainable problems.
