Income tax filing is the process of submitting a detailed report of an individual’s or business’s earnings and tax liabilities to the relevant tax authorities. This typically involves completing and submitting tax forms that outline income, deductions, exemptions, and any applicable credits. The filing ensures compliance with tax regulations and helps determine the amount of tax owed or refunded.

An income tax notice reply is a formal response to a communication from tax authorities regarding discrepancies or issues with a tax filing. It typically involves providing additional information, clarifying misunderstandings, or addressing concerns raised by the tax authorities to resolve the matter. The reply ensures compliance with tax regulations and helps avoid penalties or further investigation

An income tax appeal is a formal request made by an individual or business to challenge a decision or assessment made by tax authorities. This process allows taxpayers to dispute tax liabilities, penalties, or other issues they believe are incorrect. The appeal is typically submitted to a higher authority or tribunal for review, providing an opportunity to present evidence or arguments to support the taxpayer's case and seek a favorable resolution

Income tax assessment is the process by which tax authorities review and evaluate an individual’s or business’s income tax return to determine the correct amount of tax payable. This involves verifying the accuracy of the reported income, deductions, exemptions, and credits. The tax authorities may conduct an assessment based on the submitted return or through a detailed audit. If discrepancies are found, adjustments may be made, and additional taxes, penalties, or interest could be levied. The final outcome is a notice of assessment, which specifies the amount of tax owed or any refunds due.

TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) is a system of tax collection in which tax is deducted at the source of income. It applies to various types of payments such as salaries, interest, rent, and professional fees. Under the TDS system, the payer deducts a certain percentage of the payment as tax and remits it to the tax authorities on behalf of the payee. The amount deducted is then credited to the payee's tax account, and the payee can claim it as a credit when filing their income tax return. TDS ensures a steady flow of tax revenue and reduces the chances of tax evasion.
