How We Handle Income Tax Litigation

πŸ“‹

Case Analysis

Before filing any appeal, we analyse the order in detail β€” identifying legal infirmities, factual errors, and grounds that have the strongest chance of success at each appellate level.

βš–οΈ

CIT(A) Representation

Filing well-researched appeals before the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) with comprehensive written submissions, case law support, and documentary evidence.

πŸ›οΈ

ITAT Matters

Representation before the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal β€” Chandigarh bench (Haryana matters) and Delhi bench. We have extensive experience with ITAT proceedings across multiple tax years.

πŸ”’

Stay of Demand

Filing stay applications to prevent recovery during pendency of appeals. A properly argued stay keeps your business operations unaffected while the dispute is pending.

πŸ”

Search & Seizure

Specialised handling of post-raid assessments under Section 153A/153C. Our search and seizure practice provides complete support from the day of the search.

πŸ’°

Vivad Se Vishwas

Advisory and filing under dispute resolution schemes like Vivad Se Vishwas when settlement is the better commercial decision than continued litigation.

Frequently Asked Questions

First, do not ignore the demand or pay it without legal review. Read the order carefully and note the date β€” you have 30 days from the order date to file an appeal before CIT(A). Simultaneously, you can file a stay application to prevent forced recovery during the appeal. Contact us immediately β€” the 30-day window is strict and once missed, you need special condonation. We analyse the order and advise on the best course of action within 24-48 hours.
Under the Faceless Appeal Scheme introduced in 2020, appeals before CIT(A) are now decided without any personal hearing by default. Submissions are made electronically through the income tax portal. The case is assigned to a random appellate officer across India. This system requires well-drafted written submissions since there is no opportunity to explain orally. Our team specialises in preparing comprehensive written arguments for faceless appeals.
Yes, absolutely. Before responding to a Section 148 reassessment notice, you can challenge it by filing a reply under Section 148A objecting to the proposed reopening. If the AO proceeds despite your objection, you can challenge the order before the High Court by way of a writ petition, especially if the reassessment is beyond the 3-year normal limitation period or lacks tangible material. We have successfully challenged several arbitrary reassessments in Haryana.
During a search, you have the right to verify the authority of the search party, be present during the search, sign the panchanama only after reviewing it, and have your counsel present. Post-search, you must respond carefully to statements recorded and subsequent notices. Do not make admissions under pressure. Contact us immediately β€” the statements made during a raid are used extensively in subsequent assessment proceedings. See our search and seizure services for complete guidance.
