Under the new system, taxpayers have received notices on their registered e-mails as well as on registered accounts on the web portal www.incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in with real-time by way of SMS.

The notice specifies the issues for which their cases have been selected for scrutiny. Replies to the notices can be prepared at ease by taxpayers and sent by email to the NeAC by uploading the same on the designated web portal. (AIR NEWS)
