Income Tax
e-assessment
Overview About Service
The Income Tax Department developed the Income Tax e-assessment system, often known as faceless assessment, to carry out tax assessments digitally and automatically. With this technique, the assessing officer and the taxpayer do not have any direct contact during the tax assessment process.
The Income Tax portal serves as the primary means of communication for the taxpayer and the tax department during the e-assessment procedure. Notices, questions, and other messages are delivered electronically to the taxpayer, who can also reply to them online. The examination is carried out centrally by a team of officers, and the taxpayer's identity is kept secret throughout to guarantee a fair and objective appraisal.
Income Tax e-assessment's major goal is to minimise physical interface and encourage quicker resolution of tax issues while increasing openness, efficiency, and accountability in the tax assessment process. It is a part of the government's initiatives to use technology to combat tax evasion and simplify the assessment process for taxpayers.
