Since you have received the notice u/s 148A, you have to furnish the reply to the AO within the time specified in the notice citing the reasons for non-filing of return for the relevant A.Y.
The AO will examine your reply & if your reply satisfies the officer, then the proceeding will be dropped by the AO.
If the reply does not satisfy him, then your case u/s 148 will be opened by the officer for the said F.Y. & then you will have to file the return u/s 148 & furnish the documents as asked by the officer from time to time.
it is suggested to obtain the assistance of any CA or other professional to draft the reply.
In case of any further queries, kindly mail me at casoravgupta @ gmail.com

You are required to provide the reply to the AO within the time provided in the notice outlining the reasons for non-filing of return for the relevant A.Y. Given that you have received the notice under section 148A, you are obligated to do so. The AO will review your response, and if the officer finds that your response satisfies his or her needs, the proceeding will not be pursued further by the AO penalty kick online. If the response does not satisfy him, then the officer will initiate your case under section 148 for the given F.Y., and then you will be required to file the return under section 148 and furnish the documents as asked by the officer from time to time.
