Income Tax Department launches ‘Faceless Income Tax Appeals’

New Delhi, September 25

The Income Tax Department on Friday launched “Faceless Income Tax Appeals” under which all IT appeals will be finalised in a faceless manner under the exception of those relating to serious frauds and major tax evasion.

Under Faceless Appeals, there will be no physical interface from e-allocation of appeal, e-communication of notice, e-verification and e-communication of the appellate order. The taxpayers can make submissions from the comfort of their home and save their time and resources.

The system will allocate cases through data analytics and AI with central issuance of notices each of which will have a Document Identification Number (DIN). — TNS
