ONE OF MY CLIENT RETIRED IN THE YEAR OF 2020. NOW HE IS PENSIONER BUT HE RECEIVED ONE MESSEGE FROM INCOME TAX DEPARTMENT NON FILING OF INCOME TAX RETURN. ACTUALLY HE IS NOT LIABLE FILE INCOME TAX RETURNS. HIS TOTAL SALARY FOR THE YEAR DOES NOT EXCEED RS. 250000/-. BUT HE WITHDRAW HIS ENTIRE RETIREMENT AMOUNT FROM BANK OF RS. 17,90000/- TO DEPOSITED TO POST OFFICE FOR HIGHER INTEREST RATES. NOW HE RECEIVED MESSAGE FROM ITD TO FILE INCOME TAX RETURNS THROUGH SFT TRANSACTION REQUIRED TO FILE INCOME TAX RETURN. NOW HE SHOULD FILE INCOME TAX RETURN OR RESPONSE IN ANNUAL INFORMATION STATEMENT IN PRELIMINARY RESPONSE.
ACTUALL FACT IS THAT THE RETIREMENT AMOUNT WANTED TO DEPOSIT IN POST OFFICE ANY SCHEME FOR HIGHER INTEREST RATE. INSTEAD OF NEW BANK CHEQUE HAD GIVEN OLD CHEQUE TO THE POST OFFICE BUT THE CHEQUE HAD BEEN RETURNED BECAUSE OF THE CHEQUE IS OLD. THE AGENT OF THE POST OFFICE WRONGLY ADVISED TO HIM IS THERE NO PROBLEM WITHDRAW THE ENTIRE AMOUNT AND DEPOSIT TO THE POST OFFICE. BUT THE POST OFFICE PEOPLE WERE ALSO NOT AWARED HIM AND ALSO HE DID NOT TAKE ANY KIND OF SUGGESTION FROM US. NOW THE PROBLEM IS ARISED.
DEAR SIR, WE COULD REPLY TO ITD AS THE ASSESSEE MADE MISTAKES WERE WRONGLY ADIVSED. SO KINDLY ACCEPT OUR RESPONSE AS THE FACT DID SO HAPPENED.
THERE IS OTHER ANY INCOME EXCEPT THE RETIREMENT AMOUNT CREDITED TO HIS ACCOUNT.
