Dear Taxpayer,

Your Income Tax Return has been identified under the risk management process of the Income Tax Department for the following reason(s), wherein your confirmation is required on the following claim(s)/deduction(s)/Omission(s) resulting in refund.

Reason(S):-

This communication is intended to alert you on any possible incorrect claims/ommissions in the return.

You are requested to submit your response in the e-Filing Portal, after selecting either of the following options:

  • The claim of refund is correct to the best of my knowledge and belief.
  • Return of Income is being revised wherein, correct claim of refund shall be made.

Why Taxpayers Receiving this mail:

Because there is a difference between Deductions claimed in ITR and deductions shown in Form 16 issued by the employer.

Now understand with an example:

Mr. X had taken house property on loan and he is paying EMI (Principal + Interest) so he can claim the deduction under section 80C for Principal portion and for the interest portion under section 24(b).

Mr. X is an employee so he needs to furnish the above detail to claim the deduction. If Mr. X has not furnished the above details to the employer.

But while filing ITR Mr. X claimed deduction. Deductions claimed in form 16 and while filing ITR is different now. This difference results in mail from Income Tax Department (CPC).
