No action has been taken on my request for deactivating duplicate PAN Card ######### from aadhar.
I have surrendered my duplicate PAN on 5 months before but still no action has taken. Im continuously visiting office twice in every month but they keep on saying they are all busy with their activities.
Are we not working professionals or don’t we have any work. I have met public relational officer and explained my difficulties politely and she simply said they have other priority works.

Dear Sir, its a great initiative that our government has come up with vivad se vivash scheme. Dear Sir, if you are satisfied with the amount of demand raised, then u can opt for this scheme.u will not be liable to pay penalty and the interest on it. However if u wish to get the address of your complaint from CIT(Appeal),u make an application for early hearing in this matter.
IT dept taking time from Aug 2019 till now Feb 2020, not processed my income tax, I went through the steps mentioned in this article and submitted grievance, to which I get the reply as ‘due to wanting of verification of certain claims made by taxpayer’, and then written as ‘Taxpayer may receive further communication from department seeking responses’, I am to receive 47k refund, its more than 6 months now and I am missing interest on the amount, they close the grievance themselves, usually, one who raises the issue should be closing it, this is completely absurd, I am a salaried man and don’t have any other income, and still this happens to me, this is totally illegal from the end of govt. and income tax debt.
Any way I can file a case against them and make them pay for my damages?
My husband is an Amway distributor. How much it’s possible for him to make is very clear and verifiable from Amway. Now because he had team members in remote areas, he would buy products on their behalf on his credit cards and when they paid him, he would pay off the cards. Naturally, this led to a lot of cash transactions from which he earned nothing. An income tax officer listened to his dealings and advised him to open a current account and make all deposits there instead of directly to the cards. Next year, he charged my husband with earning revenues equal to the amount deposited in that account. Not only that, he has made a false demand of 50 lakhs, which my husband has never possessed, let alone profits of that amount. Amway can confirm that it’s impossible for a person at that level to earn this much. We subsequently found another source to access that officer’s boss, but even he wants us to pay at least half that amount.
My husband’s only asset is his bike and he has told the officer that. Now no one is willing to even listen to the case until we pay the income tax department. And obviously, we are afraid to go to anyone to solve the problem because the income tax officers can do worse. The process is going on for around 1.5 years and my husband’s accounts are frozen for a year these bastard income tax officers don’t even care about how are family must be running. They don’t deserve to live but it’s my husband that’s on the verge of suicide. We don’t know what to do. Can you suggest any remedy?
For help in this matter please contact the helpdesk of the department.
Please complain in PMO (Prime Minister office) by writing letter, if you have IT officer Mobile No. & other details if any.
This will help a lot, why IT people do like this.

You must have received notice u/s 148 for re-opening of case. In case you do not reply they make best judgement assessment u/s 144 based on the available records with them. I you had filed the return properly then it would not have happened.. You could have shown this as business income and accordingly pay some Income tax based on commission earning. The time for making appeal is also passed.
