With the advent of online tax filing it is much easier task to file your returns. But sometime there may be situations where you need to interact with income tax department to clarify their doubts or to raise the issues related to your tax filing.

Assessing Officer-He is the authorized person who make assessment of your return filed and if some clarification need then he will issue notice to you requesting for more data. Hence to assess each individual’s tax return, Income Tax Department set up different offices across India. These officers sit in these designated offices and will verify depending on the location they allotted and category of tax payers.
Designation of such officers may vary based on volume of income, nature of trade assigned by board. It may be like Income Tax Officer, Assistant Commissioner, Deputy Commissioner, Joint Commissioner or Additional Commissioner.
Such individual offices of Assessing Officer is allotted a unique number to identify. This number is called Income Tax Ward/Range No./AO Code. They have the powers to scrutinize your returns and if possible request for additional information. Your income tax refund will also be approved by these AOs only.
By going by above information, you noticed that how much important for you to know about your AO or tax ward and circle. Below is the procedure to find the same.

Hello Sir,
My relative got his PAN in Chennai when he was working here. Later on, he shifted to Canada but was filing his returns in India for rental income and interest income.Recently, he wanted to close his capital gain account scheme. So, he applied for Form G for closure of the account and submitted the form to the AO [non-corporate ward 23(4)]. But, now the AO has rejected the application saying the assessee does not fall under her jurisdiction since he is an NRI and has no salary income in India. Can you please let me know whether the assessee’s jurisdiction will fall under the business income or non-resident. Thank you
Pushkala-Strange. Reply to him stating that where is the rule that whether AO changes if the taxpayer is NRI and no salary income?
Thanks for the write-up.

Sir,
I got My PAN while I was working in Chennai, but later on i shifted to Bangalore and then to Bombay. From last 5 years I am in Bombay and I changed my profession from MNC’s to NGO (as a voluntary servant). Since I was not an employ and not earning any money, I did not submit any ITR.
When I stopped working I have put all my savings in a deposit. But 10% on the interest is taken as TDS every year. Last year I noticed it and applied for ITR for 2016-17AY and 2017-18AY. To submit ITR for the previous (to get the TDC as refund) I need to change my PAN AO from chennai to Mumbai.
Whom to approach for this. can you kindly guide me for this. Currently I am staying at the below address:
7 KM Munshi Marg. Girgoan Chowpatty,Mumbai 400007.
Pandu-In my view, you have to write to the current AO for change.

Hello Mr. Basavaraj,
Is there ANY OTHER WEBSITES TO CHECK THE AO OTHER THIS ONE. BECAUSE ITS NOT WORKING PROPERLY RIGHT NOW. I WILL BE REALLY GRATEFUL TO YOU IF YOU CAN HELP ME WITH FINDING THE AO BY USING PAN CARD NUMBER.
Mithun-This is the one authentic portal. If it is not working, then wait for some time.
Please check yourself. Something has changed. It’s no longer as you suggested. We are now asked to log-in using PAN and Password. Then we are taken to our page where there’s no way of finding Jurisdiction.
Since my PAN has been de-activated for reasons unknown, I’m asked to contact my AO. For that I need to know my jurisdiction ward etc. I have been filing returns online for years and have no idea who my AO is.
Please help!
Paramjit-Process may be changed. Let me update.
Dear Sir, your blog is very useful. Is it mandatory to change the AO officer. Previously I was working in Thane ( Near Mumbai) and my present AO shown is of Thane. However I moved to pune 6 years back. I was filing on-line returns and was not aware of AO change. My question is – Is it mandatory to change AO ? I know practically we should have AO near where you are residing so that u can approch them whenever required. However is it mandatory to change AO? Is this very complicated process ?
Rajendra-Better to change but not mandatory.
Mr Basavaraj,

Dear Basavaraj,

Hi Basavaraj,
I had made a mistake while filing IT returns for 2013-14 assessment year. (Mistake was instead of ‘Income under head salaries’ I had put “Gross salary number” which resulted in notice to pay extra). But even after couple of rectification requests it wasnt processed and now it has to be accessed by Jurisdictional Assessing Officer. When I checked how to contact AO, got below information. Will sending out email with Form16 and explaining the mistake made will be fine or should I try to meet Officer in person ? Any idea about whether we can expect quick email response from AO ?
Area Code KAR
AO Type W
Range Code 111
AO Number 1
Jurisdiction WARD 1(2)(1), BANGALORE
Building Name –
Email ID bangalore_ito-int-it-1-3@incometax.gov.in
Thanks
Vedavyasa-You no need to meet him personally. You can mail him.

sir,
i am applying for a pan card for the first time, and through online
i am being asked for the AO code for my area..i am from kolkata and my house pincode is 700032. now i am spotting two places where this pincode feature– one saying ‘cases above 20 lakhs’ and other saying ‘cases below 20 lakhs’…am confused. how to tell apart Wards from Circles? would be great if you could help out.
thanking you, anubhab
Anubhab-Rs.20 lakh is your income range. Hence, if your income is less than Rs.20 lakh there is separate AO and if it is more then for that another AO. Select based on your current income range.

Iam trying to find the AO type,AO number, ward / circle information etc, and i used ” Know your judisctriction link to find them..I’m able to see all the information like AO type,number,range .. but where exactly i should check the ward/circle.

I have not received the refund yet. issue is Gurgaon IT office is saying that pan is not in their jurisdiction so they cannot process refund.

Can you help me understand what is the rule in this regard and how I get the refund.
Thanks &Regards

Hello,
I did my PAN card almost 9 years back and at that time I was posted in Assam.
Recently, I changed the same Address of Assessee of my PAN card from NSDL and now the profile part of Income tax website, the Address of Assessee is showing as the new address.
But, still now the jurisdiction Accessing officer shows the old address. I had two queries:
1) Do I need to do anything more to transfer/change the Accessing Jurisdiction Officer from earlier place to the new one?
2) If there is nothing more required, then how much time it takes the Accessing Jurisdiction Officer to be changed?
Pinaki-You have to write to old AO for requesting the transfer. Otherwise, I hope they keep your request in dust.
Hi Basavaraj,
Thanks for the useful info in your post above. I had recently applied for an address change in my PAN card as I have been staying with my son in Bangalore for the past 3-4 years. Few days back I recd the new PAN card at the new address but the AO in the income tax site still shows the old one. Can you please let me know based on your exp if the AO changes immediately on PAN address change and how much time it takes to reflect on the income tax website.
Thanks a lot,
Best Regards,
Ashok
Ashok-I am not about how much time it takes. But they change it immediately. You can check the same with NSDL.

Sir I was living in Bharuch between 1982 to 2010. My address in PAN was Bharuch. My ward and AO of income tax office was Bharuch After my retirement in 2010 I have relocated at Ahmedabad and got my residential address of PAN from Bharuch to Ahmedabad. I am filing my IT return online showing new address of Ahmedabad since 2012. But till date my AO office and jurisdiction of Income tax office is not changed from Bharuch to Ahmedabad and it shows as Bharuch only. Since my new address is in Ahmedabad and my PAN address is also changed… when my jurisdiction of income tax office would get changed If it does not change.. is there any problem.. ? Please reply.
Bharatbhai-No need to worry.
how we can find our AO detail for new pan from address
Vipin-Exactly like what I explained above.
Dear Sir,
I was received an intimation u/s 143(1) of IT Act dated 28/7/2014 for payment of tax of Rs.35250/- for my IT return for the assessment year 2013-14. However, as the tax deducted by my employer (which was also reflected in form 26AS) was not shown properly in the computation sheet and the authority was claimed some amount under sec. 234B & 234C I was submitted a rectification request through online on 11/8/2014 after recalculating the tax liability and making payment of the tax which was claimed by the IT authority. However, rectification order dated 8/12/2014 does not take in to account the amount already deducted and deposited by my employer and the order again demanded the amount. After that for my return for the AY 2014-15 I got some refund which was directed credited to my account. But now in the intimation letter under sec.245 for the assessment year 2015-16 I have been informed that the return has been processed at CPC and the same has resulted in refund however the refund so determined will be adjusted against the outstanding demand if no response submitted online within 30 days. On the basis of the direction given in the intimation letter I have now submitted my response online for the outstanding demands indicating the demand as partially correct and giving information about BSR Code, Date of payment, serial no and amount.
In view of above kindly advise me whether the reponse for outstanding demand as made online will be sufficient to rectify the discrepency in my case or I have to againg submit a rectification request or to write to the AO. Please guide as the amount demanded is quite high and actually deposited by my employer (also reflected in 26AS).
Triptimoy-In my view, better to write the first to AO.
Hi,
I received an income tax demand on e filing website for AY 2011-12 which is incorrect as I have paid all the taxes in that year and the same is reflecting in my 26 AS also. I have spoken to income tax toll free no, they have asked to meet the AO as I have filed the ITR manually in that FY. Can I go and meet the AO directly any time in the income tax office time, or there is some specific time to meet the AO. I am asking this because I am in Ghaziabad and my AO is in Gurgaon, so I have to go there to meet him in weekdays only.
Rahul-You can meet at any time. But better to call and fix the timing.

I am from Dehradun and my PAN has been created on my permanent address of DDN. Currently i am working in Chandigarh.
Please advise me in which ward should I submit my online return whether in DDn ward or in Chandigarh ward?
Thanks

Nakul-No need to provide your ward details. They will take on their own based on your PAN. If you want to mention ward then you have to mention by checking the ward as I explained above.
I have received a demand notice u/s 245 for AY 2013-14 although no intimation has been received till date u/s 143(1). The pending demand has been uploaded by the jurisdictional AO.
I have sufficient proof that there should be no demand liability in my case and in fact I should have been refunded about Rs. 62,000 having paid advance tax as well as TDS having been deposited (and appearing correctly in Form 26AS).
Anyhow I checked on the IT website and have seen my AO is Type W, AO No. 2 in Ward 30 (1) in Delhi and Range Code is 53. The only problem is that no Building or address is mentioned. How do I contact the AO without knowing where to find him. Please help.
Sunir-Why can’t you contact the IT Dept Toll Free numbers to find your ward? This page of IT Dept may help you.
dear sir,my refundable amount is not refund in my account assensening officer not cleared,ward my transfer but not cleard office where,how can i refund my refund ,I wrote a letter to assenseing officer but nothing reply
What office does it mean when Jurisdiction Office says Delhi Circle 70 (1). There is no Building name or address?
How can they provide incomplete details? I am in South Delhi and need to visit the Jurisdiction office.
This is so frustrating
Cn Someone help?
Thanks
Rajini-Will this link help you? If not then you can Google it and hope you find it easily.
The link you have provided is useful although it still requires extensive search within the database. Google did not help. I tried all combinations. No use.
The full details of my Assessing Officer is not mentioned on their website. Jurisdiction is given as 68(2) Delhi but no building name is given. How do I ascertain where he sits?
At another place, my range No. is 74 and ward is 44(2). So, how do I know which is correct and where I should go to submit relevant papers for rectification of the challan?
Thomas-Why can’t you get the address of that office and call them for verification?
Dear Mr Basavaraj Tonagatti ,
I find your blog very informative, please do continue to educate us.
I recently retired and have now settled down at my home town. While on transferrable Central Govt Service, my ward circle was at Delhi. I seek you advice regarding the procedure to be followed to transfer ones Ward Circle from one city to another
On visiting the local IT Commissioner’s office, I was adviced to initially submit an application at their Help desk requesting for the transfer of the ward circle. Then after a couple of monts silence from IT department, on query, they adviced me to submit the application to the current Circle AO (i.e., Delhi).
I happened to visit Delhi recently and took my application to the help desk at “B” Block, Pratyaksh Kar Bhavan, Dr SP M Civic Centre, Minto Road, New Delhi , since my Circle AO’s office is situated in this block.
My application was not accepted with the advice that I must specify the exact Circle that I wish to be transferred to.
Please do let me know the procedure to determine the applicable Ward Circle at my new address in the new city.
I am not able to travel much now, and to meet any future requirement to meet with my concerned AO regarding future IT related issues, I consider it prudent to have the Ward Circle transferred to the city of my permanent residence, post retirement.
Please advice.
Thanks
Baaz-I think the second option of what you did is correct.
Hi,
I got my PAN card created from Aligarh 3 yrs back. Then in late 2012, I shifted to Ghaziabad and also got the address changed in my PAN card details.
But when I check my Jurisdiction from
https://incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in/e-Filing/Services/KnowYourJurisdictionLink.html
it is still showing it as Aligarh.
So my questions are:-
1) Doesn’t Jurisdiction should automatically get changed when I applied from change in address.
2) What should I now do to get the Jurisdiction corrected ?
Atul-Submit for the correction in your existing jurisdiction.
Hi,
Thanks for Reply.
Can you please provide/suggest/link a sample for letter for such correction.
Also can it be done via post.
Regards.
Atulk-I am not aware about any sample letter.
Hi,
What are the negative scenarios in case I do not change the place of Jurisdiction ( as everything is now online).
Can it cause me some problem in future, if I leave at as Aligarh ( instead of changing to Ghaziabad)
Thanks again,
AtulK
AtulK-No problem at all.
Hi Sir,
I was posted in Bangalore, when I applied for PAN card. So as per details available on incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in, my Jurisdiction is Bangalore.
Now I moved to Delhi, and would like to change the Jurisdiction to Delhi office. Can you please let me know the process to change Jurisdiction.
Thanks in Advance,
Tarun.
Tarun-You can contact the concerned ward for the same.
Hi basavraj,
how can I change my ward number mentioned in the PAN card.
Actually where I live, for the same place my Ward number.
I want to correct it, how can I go for the same.
What all forms I need to submit. Please do let me know.
Abhishek-Why you want to change when everything is now set up online.
Dear Sir,
This is with regards to outstandind demand from Income tax office for tax payable. For AY2012-13, I have paid all my taxes.TDS has been deducted but it is under two different TAN no while during that period I worked for thw same company.I was supposed to pay tax amount of Rs 122891 and TDS of same amount was deduceted (Rs 45000 and Rs 77891).
I can see the same under 26AS form on website that all taxes has been paid. But CPC is unable to see and according to them only Rs 77891 has been paid and they are demanding remaining amount(which alread has been deducted from my salary but under diffrenet TAN NO).
After notice, i had filed the rectification request but that was of no use.Following is the rely from CPC
” The assessee is required to view the taxcredits available in form 26AS in the MY Account TAB after logging into the website http://www.incometaxindiaefiling.go.in and enter the exact details in the respective schedules by opeing the MY ACCOUNT TAB therein and selecting “TAX payer is correcting data for tax credit mismatch only under the rectification requst type.
The assessee is required to generate and upload the rectification XML.If the tax payments claimed are not available in assesses account.As per form 26AS,the Assessee has to get the same corrected by the bank/deductor and also get the corrected data uploaded to OLTAS/NSDL DATABASE .The assessee is then required to file an online rectification request by opening the same ‘MY ACCOUNT TAB therein ticking the category-TAX credit mismatch box under the request type- NO FURTHER DATA CORRECTION REQUIRED <REPROCESS THE CASE"
Now, for AY2014-15, I am supposed to get therefund of Rs 15000 but I received the intimation that they will adjust this amount with outstanding amount from AY2012-13.I have been asked by CPC to contact my AO but I do not have his contact no or e mail .Only he can do something that too it has to be done within 15 days and deadline is 3rd September'14.
I find it completely absurd and I do not have any clue what to do.I kindly request you to guide me.
Thanking you
Warm Regards,
Pranay
Pranay-It happens sometime. Because IT Dept guys are not gods and they are very much commit mistakes like me and you 🙂 So my suggestion is to contact your concerned account officer of ward (if possible by taking help of CA or tax expert) and resolve the issue by proof.
please sir tell me about my ward circle.. i am a central goverment employee. and at this time i am posted at ranikhet. and my pan card issued on my home town adress. then what i fill ward circle and place in itr form according to place or pan adress.
Anil-You can search your ward and circle as I said above and mention the same.
my pan no. is issued to different ward no by income tax office, now my refund orders are pending as A is telling your ward is B, while B is telling i cannot see our return details as you have filed ur it returns in A ward. so plz suggest me how to transfer from wrong ward to right ward or any other alternative.
Anil-If you filed your return with A then inform the assessing officer that it was wrongly filed with him/her. So requesting to transfer the records to ward B (providing address proof and PAN details). Once the record transferred then request for refund with ward B. Also I don’t see any hurdle as filing of return is online now. But let follow the process as I said above and reply here to know more or guide you in better way.
Dear sir,
I have housing loan of 25L, do you think i can avail both Interest/principal tax rebate along with loss on housing property. it is self occupied property
Thanks for you help in advance.
Thanks
Virender
Virender-Yes you can avail tax benefit under different sections of income tax for principal and interest payment. But let me know what type housing loss you incurred.
Thanks for your response. I am not very clear about this clause, i gone through some arcticle and wanted to confirm with you before declaring anything.
Say, the flat i bought is occupied by me and i am paying housing loan EMI 27000/-(25L) on the same.
So, do you think i can avail loss on housing property as per below:
Interest paid: 150000
Rental value: NIL (as it is self occupied)
it give me value -150000 loss on housing property.
Is this true or i am doing some mistake.
Virender-How can interest paid on loan will be loss to you? It will not come under loss. But you can avail deduction of principal and interest from your taxable income. Under Sec 24 of income tax upto Rs.1,50,000 of interest in a single financial year is claimed for deduction from your income. Also principal paid in a year is eligible for deduction of up to Rs.1,00,000 under Sec 80c.
Hi Sir,
I am confuse with the clause “income from house property” Deduction Under Section 24:
1) interest on Housing loan ( i have decleard in annual tax decleration).
2) Loss from house property ?, what it means, i have followed few arcticles but not able to understand it.
Please help me with this.
Thanks
Virender
Virender-Loss from property means suppose you bought a property at Rs.100 and sold it at Rs.90 then Rs.10 is considered as loss.
Thankyou sir, got it , i taken it as wrong.
Hi Basavaraj,
Thanks for the useful information. I checked my IT ward which is set to Kolkata possibly because I was working there when I filed my first returns. Now that I have moved to a different state, should I specify a different ward or continue to use Kolkata?
Thanks
Rao
Rao-Now you moved to different city means you need to submit the address proof, which will change your ward.
we need to submit address proof..but to whom?
Pramod-Can you elaborate more about your doubts?
Pretty useful information. Thanks!
Venkateswaran-Pleasure 🙂
Very useful information. Thanks Mr. Basavaraj.
Ramesh-Pleasure 🙂
