A Section 143(1A) notice flags a mismatch between your return and the department's records. We reconcile the figures and file a proper response before the deadline.

Book Free Consultation

A notice under Section 143(1A) is issued when the return processed under Section 143(1) shows a discrepancy between the income or deductions reported and the data available with the department — typically from Form 26AS, the Annual Information Statement (AIS), or TDS records. Left unaddressed, such mismatches can lead to further scrutiny or an incorrect demand.

At N D Savla & Associates, we reconcile the flagged figures against your books and department records, and prepare a clear response for clients across Nashik, Nagpur, Pune, Mumbai and the rest of Maharashtra.

Below is an overview of our approach to Section 143(1A) notices, our process, and answers to frequently asked questions.

Our Section 143(1A) Support

Mismatch Identification

We compare the notice against your filed return, Form 26AS and AIS to identify the exact figures in dispute.

Root Cause Analysis

We determine whether the mismatch arises from a reporting error, a timing difference, or an error in the department's own data.

Correction or Explanation

Depending on the cause, we either prepare an explanation with supporting evidence or assist in filing a rectified return.

Portal Response

The response is filed within the window specified in the notice, along with supporting documentation.

AIS Feedback

Where the mismatch stems from incorrect third-party reporting, we assist in submitting feedback on the AIS to correct the underlying data.

Follow-up Tracking

We track the processing of your response to confirm the notice has been closed without further demand.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common causes include income or TDS not reported by a deductor in a timely manner, deductions claimed in the return that don't match third-party data, or timing differences between when income is recognised and when it is reported by another party.

Not always. If the mismatch is due to incorrect third-party reporting, an explanation with supporting evidence may suffice. If the error lies in your own return, filing a rectified or revised return may be the appropriate step.

You can respond with supporting documentation demonstrating the correct position, and where applicable, submit feedback on the AIS to flag incorrect data reported by a third party such as a bank or employer.

If left unaddressed, the discrepancy may result in the return being processed with an adjusted demand, or the case may be flagged for further examination.
