Frequently Asked Questions
Can't find your question? Email us.
It's our promise that when you file with us, we don't just hand you an ITR and walk away. If a tax notice ever shows up — this year, next year, or five years from now — our experts step in and see it through to resolution.
Yes, for the notices that matter most. Defective return notices (Section 139(9)) and intimations under Section 143(1) are fully covered at no cost — we read them, respond, and close them out. Some other notice types need a paid plan, and we're upfront about that before you pay anything.
Then it's on us, completely. We fix it, respond to it, and refund your filing fee — no charge to you, no matter how much work it takes on our end.
We still don't leave you to handle it alone. Our experts help you understand it and draft the response — some of these cases involve extra work (like rebuilding return data or filing a revised return), and if there's a cost, we tell you upfront before beginning.
That amount is between you and the department — we can't waive a genuine tax liability, no cover can. What we do handle is everything around it: reading the notice, drafting the response, and making sure you're never asked to pay more than what's actually owed.
For life. Every return you file with us carries its own lifelong cover — whether the notice comes one year later or seven.
Just share it with us — over email, WhatsApp, or your dashboard. That's it on your end until we get back to you.
Our experts respond within 24 hours of you sharing the notice, draft the reply, and file it — you just approve it before it goes out.
No. We draft the response and file it; your part is reviewing and approving it.
These fall outside the free cover and involve additional cost, since they typically require deeper work. We'll walk you through what you're dealing with and the right way to handle it.
