Sir/Madam,

Sub:- Printing of official email address and office telephone number on Notice u/s. 143(2) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 -reg-

CBDT through its letter in F. No. 225/214/2016/ITA.II dated 30.08.2016 directed various income-tax  authorities to mention their e-mail address and office telephone  number in all notices/letters/communications  being issued by them to the taxpayers.

2. Some instances have been reported where e-mail address and office telephone number of Assessing Officer is not printed on notice u/s. 143(2) generated on the system. This is due to incomplete profile information of assessing officers present in HRMS system

3. The officers may be directed to update the office details including name of the office , Room number and floor , office phone and designation, email address etc. in HRMS. Once the information is updated in HRMS the same will be reflected in ITBA on all notices, letters , orders , workflows etc.

Until the e-mail address and office telephone number of Assessing Officers are automatically printed on notices u/s. 143(2), the Assessing Officers should put a stamp/mention the details of their official email address and office telephone  number  on notices u/s. 143(2) before sending it to the assessees.

Yours faithfully
