Common questions

Frequently asked.

I received a Section 148 notice for reassessment — what should I do?
Do not ignore it. File a reply within the time specified objecting to the reopening if the income has not escaped assessment. The normal reassessment limit is 3 years; extended limit is 10 years only if escaped income exceeds ₹50 lakh. RDA Advisory checks the limitation and legality before advising on the appropriate response.
My GST demand is for ₹30 lakh — is it worth fighting?
Absolutely. GST demands are frequently raised on technicalities — ITC mismatches, classification disputes, or GSTR-1/3B differences — where the underlying liability may be significantly lower or nil. Filing a well-drafted SCN reply at Section 73/74 stage often results in demand reduction or full withdrawal. The success rate at first appeal (Section 107) and GSTAT remains strong for genuine cases.
Can I get a stay of income tax demand while my appeal is pending?
Yes. You can apply for a stay of demand under Section 220(6) of IT Act 1961 before the Assessing Officer. For ITAT appeals, a stay petition can be filed before the Tribunal. Typically 20% of the disputed demand must be deposited as a condition for stay. RDA Advisory prepares the stay application and represents you at the stay hearing.
