In various cases based on information received from various sources, automated system or discrepancy in the return of income a notice may be issued to an assessee for detailed enquiry of his sources of income or return of income filed. In those cases, the particulars of income of an assessee is scrutinized by the income tax officer through online or offline mode and after than an order is passed.
