One of my known has got in notice U/s 245 from income tax for AY 2015-16. actually he reported his GTI 422664 and deduction 140810 and in this way total taxable income is 281854. and paid tax on it RS. 1221.
Now the income tax demand for outstanding approx 19k. actually the officer calculated tax on 422664 and did not consider the deduction. however our return is ok but it was filled in Manually.
Pls suggest how can I response on that. need your urgent help.

Move rectification application u/s 154 before the ITO since paper return can't be rectified online. Then respond online to the notice u/s 245 by selecting appropriate option such as 'demand not correct'. 'Rectification pending before ITO'.
