24 February 2018 I have got notice u/s 131 (1A). IT office is asking for my 3 years return and assets details.
Also asking for list of Bit coin accounts and bitcoin investment and profit.

I am a salaried person and my TDS is deducted normally by employer.
My investment is around 5 -6 lakhs and so far there is no gain in trading in bitcoin.

i have heard IT officer harrass a lot..

Please advise, this is serious. How should i reply to IT notice.

25 February 2018 just submit the details. If there is no gain, you don't have anything to worry. Even if there is a realised gain, max an officer can do is to ask u to pay advance tax.
