Income Tax Appeals refer to the legal process where a taxpayer challenges an order or decision made by the Income Tax Department if they disagree with tax assessments, penalties, or any other determinations. These appeals follow a structured hierarchy, allowing taxpayers to contest decisions at different levels.

Hierarchy of Income Tax Appeals in India

  • Assessing Officer (AO) / Adjudicating Authority
  • Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) – CIT(A)
  • Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT)
  • High Court – If the dispute involves a substantial question of law, an appeal can be filed before the High Court.
  • The final level of appeal, only for cases with constitutional or significant legal importance.

Key Points About Income Tax Appeals

  • Time Limit:Appeals must be filed within specified timeframes (30–120 days, depending on the level).
  • Pre-deposit Requirement:At certain levels, taxpayers may need to pay part of the disputed tax before appealing.
  • No Automatic Stay: A separate application is required to stop tax recovery.
  • Legal Representation: Taxpayers can be represented by tax consultants, Chartered Accountants (CAs), or lawyers.
