Frequently asked questions

I received a 148A(b) notice with a 7-day deadline — can you help?
Yes, urgently. The 148A(b) reply is the most important step; share the notice immediately and we begin the case review the same day.
Can a Section 148 notice be quashed?
Often, yes — on limitation, absence of fresh material (change of opinion), defective sanction under Section 151, or breach of the 148A procedure.
What does it cost?
Reassessment defence is priced by complexity and stakes; engagements typically begin at ₹50,000. You get a firm quote after a confidential case review.
Do you handle NRI and foreign-asset reopenings?
Yes, including Schedule FA and Black Money Act matters, which need particular care.
