TAX Assessment

Understanding Tax Assessment: Ensuring Compliance & Accuracy

Tax assessment is the process by which the income tax department evaluates an individual’s or business’s taxable income and determines the tax liability. It ensures compliance with tax laws and prevents underreporting of income. Tax assessments can be self-assessed, scrutiny-based, or reassessment cases initiated by authorities. Accurate tax filings, maintaining financial records, and responding to tax notices promptly help in smooth assessments. Proper assessment minimizes legal issues and helps taxpayers plan their financial obligations efficiently.
