officers and public.
 In the course of assessment proceedings
sometimes there may arise a dispute between the
department and the assessee over the
interpretation of some of the provisions of the Act.
The Department’s interpretation of the law may be
objected by the assessee as unreasonable and
incorrect.
 To redress such grievances the assessee can go to
Court of Law as is prescribed in the Act. In such
Basic Concepts cases any decisions given by the
Supreme Court become a law which will be binding
on the income tax department as well as on the tax
payers
 The Finance Bill which declares the financial
prospects of the Central Government for the
next financial year.

 He is a person by whom any tax or any other

 The term assessee is divided into three
categories as under:
 (1) Ordinary Assessee
 (2)Deemed Assessee
 (3) Assessee in Default.
 Any person against whom some proceedings under Income
Tax Act are going on.
 For example, Mr.A carries on a small provision stores. His
annual income does not exceed Rs.2,50,000.
 He does not have any idea about Income Tax. However the
Income Tax Department issues notice to him to submit
statement of Income. He has approached an Auditor and filed
Return of Income showing taxable income as Rs.2,00,000.
The Income Tax Department accepted the Return of Income.
Here, issue of notice by the department is an act of
proceedings under the Income Tax Act. So, he is considered
as an Assessee even though he is not liable to pay any tax.
 Any person who has filed Return of Loss
under sec. 139 (3). For example, Mr.A
carries on small business enterprise. During

Rs.50,000 from business due to loss by fire.
He filed return with department showing
the loss amount. Here, he does not liable to
pay any amount of income tax, however he
is treated as an assessee on the reason that
he has filed return of loss.
 Any person, by whom any amount of penalty
or interest is payable. For example, Mr. A
business man was levied income tax during

However he fails to pay the income tax. During

income tax. The department issued notice to
him to pay penalty for delayed payment
amounting to Rs.10,000. Here, he is treated as
an assessee even though he has no taxable
income during the current previous year.

and deposited with the income tax
department. However at the end of previous
year the actual amount of income tax comes
to Rs.20,000 as per return of income. Here,
he is eligible for claiming refund of tax
amounting to (2,000 x 12 = 24,000 -
20,000) Rs.4,000.Here, he is treated as an
assessee on the basis of income tax refund.
 In case of a deceased person, the executor or
legal representative will become deemed
assessee.
 For example, Mr. A is a retired Government
Officer having Rs.1,00,000 from income from
house property. He is blessed with only one
son. During the previous year he suddenly
died. Here, the son of Mr. A is treated as an
assessee in the capacity of legal
representative.
 In case of a Minor or Lunatic or person of
unsound mind, the guardian is considered
as
 deemed assessee. For example, Mr. A retired
person from Private Company does not have
any taxable income. But his son carries on a
business with taxable income of
Rs.5,00,000.
 During the previous year his son met with an
accident and became a person of unsound
mind. Here, Mr. A will be treated an
assessee in respect of income from business
in the capacity of guardian of unsound mind
person.

bought house properties in India which fetch
annual rental income of Rs.5,00,000. Here, Mr.
A treated as an assessee in respect of income
from house properties of his son in the
capacity of legal representative of non resident.
 Any person who fails to perform any statutory
obligations as per the Act is called as an
assessee in default. For example, any

of salary to his employees, fails to do so, he
will be assessed as assessee in default.
