If the user gives the required details, the issue is analyzed for resolving at Service desk itself (L-1) and if not possible, the issues are escalated to the L2/L3 team for resolution. Once the resolution is received the same is communicated to the persons concerned, via e-mail and on receipt of confirmation the calls are closed. Since the existing Nos. of telephones are not sufficient to handle pressure during peak filing periods as sometimes the phone lines may be busy, the taxpayers are hereby advised to send e-mails to Service desk.
