NRI received income tax notice 161(1a)

Dhan dhan (Tax payer) (21 Points)

15 January 2025  

Hi,

 

I received income tax summon  131(1a). I stay abroad from last 8-9 years. But I used to file tax in india every year. I receive some income as interest on fixed deposit. For that, bank deduct tax and I used to file to get the refund. Interest amount used to be less than 2 lac. In notice, they didn't mention any particular  year but asking to disclose all foreign income and assets. I don't generally transfer abroad money to india. They asked me to appear in Pune location and gave hardly 7 days from notice date. It's very difficult for me to travel in short notice. Can someone please advice what I can do in this situation.

Can I send all documents to them in email? Can I send my family member to their office?

Thanks,

Swapnil
