Section 143(2) Response — Your Return, Fully Represented.

A Section 143(2) notice means your return has been picked up for detailed scrutiny. We prepare the documentation and represent you at every stage.

Book Free Consultation

A notice under Section 143(2) confirms that your return has been selected for scrutiny assessment, and that the assessing officer intends to examine it in detail. This is the starting point of a formal assessment process that may involve multiple queries, document requests and hearings before an order is passed.

At N D Savla & Associates, we manage the full scrutiny process on behalf of clients across Nashik, Nagpur, Pune, Mumbai and the rest of Maharashtra — from the first response to the final assessment order.

Below is an overview of our Section 143(2) support, our process, and answers to common questions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, a Section 143(2) notice is the formal step that initiates scrutiny assessment — it confirms your case has been selected and that the assessing officer will examine it in detail before passing an assessment order.
The specific response window is stated in the notice itself and can vary depending on the queries raised — it's important to note the exact date and respond, or seek an appropriate extension, before it lapses.
A chartered accountant can represent you through the scrutiny process for most cases involving accounting and tax matters; separate legal representation is typically needed only if the matter escalates to litigation.
In many cases, especially under the faceless assessment scheme, the entire process — from query response to submission of evidence — can be conducted online without requiring a physical appearance.
