Based on your query regarding the intimation under Section 143(1) for FY 2008-2009 and the discrepancies related to deductions under Section 80C, here’s a step-by-step guide to address the issue:
### **Understanding the Intimation Issue:**
1. **Discrepancy Explanation:** - The intimation you received reflects a different amount of income than you expected. You mentioned that your deductions under Section 80C were not considered correctly, leading to an apparent income discrepancy.
2. **Reasons for Intimation:** - The intimation under Section 143(1) may show a higher income due to the non-consideration of your claimed deductions or other mismatches in reported income or tax credits.
### **Steps to Resolve the Issue:**
1. **Verify the Details:** - **Check Intimation:** Carefully review the intimation notice to understand the specific discrepancies. Compare it with your filed return and ensure you have correctly claimed all deductions. - **Review Documents:** Ensure that all documents, including proofs of deductions under Section 80C, were correctly submitted.
2. **Rectification Under Section 154:** - **Rectify Mistake:** If there’s an apparent mistake in the intimation, such as non-consideration of your deduction under Section 80C, you can file a rectification application under Section 154. - **Prepare Documents:** Gather all relevant documents, including proof of LIC premiums paid and any other supporting documentation.
3. **How to File Rectification:** - **Online Filing:** You can file the rectification application online through the Income Tax e-Filing portal: - **Login:** Access the [Income Tax e-Filing Portal](https://www.incometax.gov.in/iec/foportal). - **Select Rectification:** Navigate to the “Rectification” section under “My Account.” - **Provide Details:** Fill in the necessary details and attach relevant documents.
- **Offline Filing:** - **Preparation:** If you need to file offline, prepare the rectification request in a prescribed format along with supporting documents. - **Submission:** You can send the rectification request by registered post to the jurisdictional Income Tax office. Ensure that you get a receipt or acknowledgment of the posting.
4. **No Need for Personal Visit:** - **Mail or Online Submission:** If you are far from the Ward office, you do not need to visit personally. You can file online or send the rectification request via post.
5. **Considerations for Filing Offline:** - **Send by Registered AD Post:** If filing offline, sending the rectification request by registered AD post is advisable to have a record of submission. - **Ensure Accuracy:** Make sure that all information and supporting documents are accurate and complete to avoid further discrepancies.
### **Summary of Actions:**
1. **Review the Intimation and Compare it with Your Filed Return.** 2. **File a Rectification Application Under Section 154 if Necessary.** 3. **File Rectification Online through the Income Tax Portal or Send by Registered AD Post if Filing Offline.** 4. **Gather and Attach All Supporting Documents (e.g., Proof of LIC Premium Payment).**
