Sub: Assessment Year 2015-16- Notice Under Section ABC
Dear Sir,
I request you to please refer to your notice under section ABC in context with assessment year 2015-16 in which it has been stated that a sum of INR 8450 is due on me as Income Tax.
In this context, I would like to put forward a few facts to bring more clarity in this matter:
- The total tax for assessment year 2015-16 was calculated to be INR 9000 and was paid well on time.
- I have already made an advance payment of my income tax for assessment year 2015-16, the copy of which has been enclosed with this letter.
Therefore, I request you to please go through these documents and drop the demand which has been wrongly raised by passing a rectification order for the same.
Thanking in anticipation.
Sincerely,
Anurag Sharma
