If the income tax computations made by AO are incorrect under Sec 143(3) and the proceedings are not closed by the AO, then you just need to respond in the following manner:
1.Collect all the details of IT computation which you would have computed while calculating it earlier. 2. Prepare a covering letter and indicate all the annexures attached with the reply letter. 3. If any of your income tax dues are pending with the income tax department, you can also mention it in the covering letter. 4.Submit the file to the Assessing officer. Remember to keep its copies before submitting.Take the acknowledgement copy from the Assessing officer for your own records.
If Proceedings are closed by AO then you have to apply for Appeal within 30 days.
