With income tax returns filing season commencing soon, taxpayers have been advised to re-check their new assessment ranges, or tax office jurisdiction, as the tax department has carried out a large-scale restructuring and jurisdictional change of its offices country-wide.
"Taxpayers are advised to check their new tax assessment ranges from the facility hosted on the official website of the department-- www.incometaxindia.gov.in. The new changes would be uploaded on the website by the first week of May," a senior I-T officer said.
The jurisdiction of a number of I-T assessment ranges have changed as the department has recently effected large scale cadre-restructuring and hence the existing assessees of a particular range may have shifted to a new one. For some assessees, the range may not have changed.
The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) of India, the apex policy making body of the tax department, has asked its officers to ensure that an online facility for taxpayers to check their new assessment ranges is uploaded in the given time frame.
