Today i received an email from <intimations@cpc.gov.in>

Subject: Notice U/S 245 of Income Tax Act, 1961

It said

\\”Please find the attached communication (Intimation  u/s 245 of the income tax act 1961)  for PAN with respect to  the Assessment Year 2013-14.

The attachment said \\”The Refund determined during processing is being adjusted against the outstanding demands. The details of demand are given in the table annexed.\\”

The Outstanding demand pertains to the AY # 2008

Demand Raised under section: 143(1)

Demand Raised Date : 17-02-2010

Demand outstanding : around 26k

Demand Uploaded By  : ITO SALARY WARD VI(1) CHENNAI

Now naturally i’am worried about this mail

To give you the background i have started using https://incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in to file the taxes from AY(2008-2009) onwards, the status in https://incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in for 2008-09 says \\”Return Uploaded\\”, does that mean i didn\’t send the signed ITRV? i don\’t know its been a long time so i have no idea i might have missed it

I was supposed to get a refund of 7k for that year, I have the form16 for that AY as well the ITR-V / Acknowledgement  ITR/Form. Now pls advise what i must do about this? and how should i go about this.
