Got an income tax notice from CBDT? Do not panic, here is how you need to react
A simple income tax notice from CBDT can cause serious panic in a household. The notice can be served in case of a discrepancy in the income tax amount calculated and paid by you while filing your income tax return (ITR) and that computed by the income tax department.
If the tax department assesses that more tax is due from you than paid and declared in your return, then you would normally get a demand notice. Source - PTI.
