Income Tax Department Ne “Under-Reporting of Income” Mention Kiya Hai – Iska Matlab Kya Hota Hai

Kai taxpayers ko income tax notice ya intimation me ye line dikhti hai:

“Under-reporting of income”.

Is phrase ko dekhte hi log ghabra jaate hain, kyunki lagta hai jaise koi serious mistake ho gayi hai.

Lekin practically dekha jaaye to har under-reporting ka matlab intentional galti ya penalty nahi hota.

Under-Reporting of Income Ka Simple Matlab

Under-reporting ka matlab hota hai ki department ke records ke hisaab se:

* Aapki actual income

* Aur ITR me declared income
   me difference hai.

Ye difference chhoti calculation error se bhi aa sakta hai.

Ye Situation Aksar Kab Banti Hai
Common cases jahan under-reporting mention hota hai:

* Bank interest ITR me include nahi hua

* Capital gain calculation galat ho gaya

* Freelance / other income miss ho gayi

* Income galat assessment year me show     ho gayi

In zyada tar cases me intention tax chhupane ka nahi hota.

Kya Har Case Me Penalty Lagti Hai?
Nahi.

Penalty tab lagti hai jab:

* Income intentionally hide ki gayi ho

* False entry ya wrong claim prove ho           jaaye

* Agar difference genuine mistake ki             wajah se hai aur aap usko explain kar         sakte ho, to penalty avoid ho sakti hai.

Notice Aane Par Pehla Practical Step

* Panic mat karein

* Notice me mention ki gayi income detail     carefully padhein

* Apne documents (bank interest,                   investment proof, calculation) match         karein

Bina samjhe reply dena situation ko bigaad sakta hai.

Reply Dete Time Kya Dhyan Rakhein

* Sirf “agree / disagree” par depend na         karein

* Logical explanation dena zaroori hota         hai

* Agar calculation error hai, to uska clear     reason batana chahiye

*.Short aur vague reply aksar accept nahi     hota.

Common Galti Jo Log Karte Hain

* Notice ko ignore kar dena

* Over-explanation likh dena

* Emotional language use karna

* Income tax reply hamesha fact-based         aur calm hona chahiye.

Conclusion

“Under-reporting of income” ka mention serious lagta hai,

lekin har case me penalty confirm nahi hoti.

Sahi understanding aur proper explanation se kaafi cases smoothly handle ho jaate hain.
