ITR filing, GST, TDS, tax notices, audit, NRI & accounting — CA-led, from a firm you can actually walk into.
CA Alok Kumar (FCA, AICA, LLM, AML Specialist) and the team at S.K. Mehta & Co. handle tax and compliance work for salaried professionals, business owners, traders, startups, NRIs and housing societies across Dwarka and Delhi NCR. 22+ years of practice, a 110+ member firm established in 1970, and a senior Chartered Accountant reviewing your file personally — not a portal that files and disappears.
Tell us what you need — a return to file, a GST registration, a notice on your portal, an audit or your books — and a Chartered Accountant from our Dwarka team calls you back the same working day with clear next steps. No obligation, no automated sales sequence.
Takes ~30 seconds. We reply the same working day.

For individuals, businesses, NRIs and societies in Dwarka & Delhi NCR
This is a routing aid, not advice. Your actual position depends on your figures, residential status and prior-year filings — a CA should confirm before you act.
Everything an individual, business, society or NRI needs from a tax consultant — handled in-house by qualified Chartered Accountants and reviewed by a senior partner. Each card links to the detailed service page.
ITR-1 to ITR-7 for FY 2025-26 with AIS, TIS and Form 26AS reconciliation, capital gains and F&O computation, Schedule FA disclosure and a documented old-vs-new regime comparison before the regime is frozen.
ITR filing detailsBelated and revised returns for AY 2025-26 and earlier can no longer be filed. An updated return under Section 139(8A) is available within 48 months of the end of the assessment year, with additional tax of 25% to 70% depending on when you file.
Check ITR-U eligibilityNew registration and amendments, monthly and QRMP returns (GSTR-1, 3B and the annual 9 / 9C), input tax credit reconciliation against GSTR-2B, refunds, e-way bill and e-invoice compliance, and cancellation or revocation.
GST registration & returnsReplies to ASMT-10 scrutiny, DRC-01A intimation and DRC-01 show-cause notices, Section 73 and 74 proceedings, ITC reversal and mismatch defence, first appeal in APL-01 and appeals before the GST Appellate Tribunal.
GST notice defenceQuarterly TDS statements — Form 138 for salary, Form 140 for resident non-salary and Form 144 for payments to non-residents under the Income Tax Act 2025 — plus challan mapping, correction returns, certificate generation and CPC-TDS demand resolution.
TDS return filingThe unified challan-cum-statement in Form 141 now replaces 26QB, 26QC, 26QD and 26QE, with the certificate in Form 132. We handle buyer-side deduction on property purchase, rent TDS, deposit timelines and interest exposure where a deduction was missed.
Property & rent TDSSection 143(1) intimation, 143(1)(a) prima-facie adjustment, 139(9) defective return, 142(1) enquiry, 148 reassessment, 245 refund adjustment and outstanding demand — assessed, replied and followed through to closure on the portal.
Notice responseDrafting submissions and evidence for faceless assessment, video-conference hearing requests, penalty proceedings under 270A and 271, appeals before CIT(A) and representation at ITAT with a full paper-book.
Litigation & appealsForm 3CA / 3CB and 3CD with clause-wise working papers, turnover and presumptive-limit testing, MSME payment disallowance checks, and a documentation trail built so that a scrutiny notice eighteen months later is answerable from the file.
Tax audit u/s 44ABDwarka is largely cooperative group housing. We handle society statutory audit, the principle of mutuality in return filing, TDS on maintenance and security contracts, 12A and 80G for trusts, and reporting that a managing committee can present at the AGM.
Society & trust auditBookkeeping in Tally or Zoho, payroll and TDS on salary, monthly MIS, GST and bank reconciliation, and virtual CFO support for founders who need a finance function without a full-time hire.
Accounting & CFOPrivate limited and LLP incorporation through SPICe+ and FiLLiP, Startup India DPIIT recognition, annual filing in AOC-4 and MGT-7 / 7A, director KYC, registered office change and secretarial records.
Company & LLPResidential status under Section 6, DTAA relief with TRC and Form 10F, lower or nil TDS certificates, TDS on property sold by an NRI, NRO to NRE repatriation and CA certificates for foreign remittance in Form 145 and Form 146.
NRI & FEMA servicesDisclosure of foreign bank accounts, ESOPs and RSUs of overseas parents, custodial and depository accounts in Schedule FA, foreign tax credit claims in Form 67, and Black Money Act exposure assessed before it becomes a notice.
Form 67 & foreign incomeNet worth certificates for visa, tender, bank and immigration purposes, turnover and stock certificates, and remittance certification — all issued with a UDIN and supporting computation attached.
Net worth certificateSalary structuring, capital gains planning before a property sale rather than after, entity structure and succession, presumptive-versus-books decisions, and advance-tax discipline through the year instead of a March scramble.
Business consultingThe new regime is the default. It gives a ₹75,000 standard deduction and a Section 87A rebate that takes tax to nil up to ₹12 lakh of total income — but no 80C, no 80D, no HRA. The old regime keeps every deduction at higher slab rates. Which one wins depends entirely on how much you actually claim.
Indicative estimate for salary and other-sources income under FY 2025-26 slabs, including the Section 87A rebate, marginal relief around ₹12 lakh in the new regime, surcharge and 4% cess. It does not compute capital gains at special rates under Sections 111A, 112 or 112A, crypto under 115BBH, business income, AMT, or every Chapter VI-A deduction. Business and professional taxpayers who opt out of the new regime must file Form 10-IEA before the due date, and the choice is not freely reversible each year. Have the final position verified before you file.
Dwarka is unusually mixed — government and PSU salaries, a dense cooperative-society belt, small traders around Dwarka Mor, IT professionals with foreign stock, and families with relatives abroad. Each of those has a different failure point.
Regime selection tested against your actual HRA, home-loan interest and 80C, not a rule of thumb. Perquisite valuation, arrears relief under Section 89 where a pay revision landed, and refund tracking to credit — with every figure matched to AIS before filing.
Section 89 relief calculatorThe common Dwarka pattern: GST turnover and income-tax turnover that do not agree, cash deposits without a trail, and 43B(h) MSME payment delays surfacing at audit. We reconcile all three before the return goes in.
GST servicesPresumptive taxation under 44ADA with the receipts test applied properly, GST on export of services and LUT, advance tax scheduled across four instalments, and the books-versus-presumptive call made on numbers rather than convenience.
Presumptive taxation guideF&O as non-speculative business income and intraday as speculative, turnover computed on the ICAI basis, audit applicability tested rather than assumed, loss carry-forward protected, and crypto reported in Schedule VDA at the flat 30% rate.
F&O and intraday taxationIncorporation and DPIIT recognition, ROC calendar management, MAT and deferred tax working for the audited accounts, 115BAA election, and due-diligence-ready books before an investor asks rather than after.
Startup India registrationResidential status determined for the year in question before anything else, DTAA relief with TRC and Form 10F, lower-TDS certificates ahead of a property sale rather than a refund claim after it, and NRO to NRE repatriation with Form 145 / 146.
NRI tax consultant, DwarkaStatutory audit, mutuality applied correctly to maintenance receipts, TDS on contracts the society signs, 12A and 80G for charitable trusts, and financials a managing committee can actually defend at the AGM.
Society & trust auditBuyer-side TDS on purchase, and on the sale side, exemption planning under Sections 54, 54F and 54EC decided before the agreement is signed — because after registration the options narrow sharply. Higher NRI-seller TDS handled with a lower-deduction certificate.
TDS on sale of propertyA CPC intimation, a scrutiny notice, a reassessment under Section 148 or a GST show-cause — the first thing that matters is the response window, and it is usually shorter than people assume. Send it to us and we will tell you the deadline the same day.
Decode your noticePick the section or form number printed on your notice. We’ll tell you plainly what it is, how long you have to respond and what usually fixes it — before you speak to anyone.
Income-tax and GST notices each carry a section or form number — usually top-right on the PDF, or in the subject line of the e-filing portal message. Choose the matching entry on the left and this panel will explain it. If none of them match what you are holding, send us a photograph on WhatsApp and we will identify it for you.
Response windows shown are the ordinary statutory or portal-stated periods. The notice itself may state a shorter date, and that date governs. Nothing here is a substitute for reading the actual notice with a professional.
All AY 2026-27 filings run under the Income-tax Act, 1961. The Income Tax Act, 2025 governs income from FY 2026-27 onwards, filed in 2027. Dates below are subject to CBDT notification or extension — verify before you rely on one.

Sector 4, Dwarka, minutes from Sector 9 and Sector 10 Metro, with a second office at Rajendra Place. When a notice needs a conversation, you sit across a desk rather than raising a ticket.

S.K. Mehta & Co., established 1970 and empanelled with CAG, RBI and IRDA. Specialists for salary, capital gains, GST, F&O and NRI work rather than one generalist for everything.
Every entry the department already knows about is matched to your records before the return is submitted. This is the single most effective defence against a Section 143(1)(a) adjustment later.
The 1961 Act governs everything you file this year; the 2025 Act governs FY 2026-27 onward. We work in both, and we quote the section that actually applies to the year in question.
Files are documented as though a notice will arrive eighteen months later — because for audit and high-value cases it often does. When it comes, most of the reply is already written.

Browse the blog →CA Alok Kumar (FCA, AICA, LLM, AML Specialist) is a Chartered Accountant based in Dwarka Sector 4 with 22+ years of practice and a 110+ member team at S.K. Mehta & Co., established 1970 and empanelled with CAG, RBI and IRDA. The practice covers income tax, GST, ITR filing, TDS, tax notices, audit, NRI and FEMA work, and accounting for individuals, businesses, startups, NRIs and housing societies across Dwarka and Delhi NCR. Whichever consultant you choose, two things are worth confirming: that a qualified CA reviews the work personally, and that they will stay with the matter if a notice arrives after filing.
Our Dwarka office is at T-3 & T-4, Manish Twin Plaza, Plot No. 3, Sector 4, Dwarka, New Delhi — 110078, a short distance from Dwarka Sector 9 and Sector 10 Metro stations with market parking nearby. Our second office is at 302-306, Pragati Tower, 26 Rajendra Place, New Delhi — 110008. Both are open Monday to Saturday, 9:30 AM to 7:00 PM. Call +91-9818167102 to book a slot, or use the appointment page.
For AY 2026-27 (FY 2025-26): 31 July 2026 for non-audit ITR-1 and ITR-2; 31 August 2026 for non-audit ITR-3 and ITR-4; 30 September 2026 for the tax audit report in Form 3CA / 3CB-3CD; 31 October 2026 for audit-case returns; and 30 November 2026 for transfer-pricing cases. A belated return can be filed up to 31 December 2026 and a revised return up to 31 March 2027. All dates are subject to CBDT notification or extension — see the full compliance calendar above.
The new regime is the default for FY 2025-26. It gives a ₹75,000 standard deduction and a Section 87A rebate that takes tax to nil up to ₹12 lakh of total income, but disallows 80C, 80D, HRA, LTA and self-occupied home-loan interest. The old regime charges higher slab rates but allows all of them. In practice the old regime tends to win only where HRA, home-loan interest, 80C and 80D together are substantial — the crossover point moves with your salary structure, so it should be computed rather than assumed. Use the calculator on this page for an indicative comparison, then have it verified. Note that salaried taxpayers can switch each year, while business and professional taxpayers must file Form 10-IEA to opt out and cannot switch freely.
Find the response deadline on the notice before anything else — it is usually shorter than people expect, and an unanswered notice becomes an ex-parte order or a confirmed demand. Then identify what is actually being asked: an intimation under Section 143(1) is not a demand for explanation, while a 142(1) or a GST ASMT-10 very much is. Use the notice decoder above to identify what you are holding, or send it on WhatsApp and we will tell you the deadline and the route the same day. Our notice response and GST defence pages set out the process in full.
Yes. We file quarterly TDS statements, resolve TRACES defaults and CPC-TDS demands, and handle property and rent TDS end to end. Under the Income Tax Act 2025 the quarterly statements are Form 138 for salary (earlier 24Q), Form 140 for resident non-salary payments (earlier 26Q) and Form 144 for payments to non-residents (earlier 27Q), with a unified challan-cum-statement in Form 141 replacing 26QB, 26QC, 26QD and 26QE, and the certificate in Form 132. See TDS return filing, property and rent TDS and the rate chart.
Yes. Document collection and consultation work entirely over WhatsApp, email and video call, and a large share of our clients — across Delhi NCR, the rest of India and NRIs in more than thirty countries — never visit in person. That said, for a first meeting on a complex matter, an hour across a desk usually saves several rounds of messages. You are welcome at either office.
Under the Income-tax Act, 1961. The Income Tax Act, 2025 applies to income earned from FY 2026-27 onwards — Tax Year 2026-27, filed in 2027. Assessments, rectifications, appeals and updated returns relating to AY 2026-27 and earlier years all continue under the 1961 Act. This trips up a lot of replies drafted this year: quoting a 2025 Act section in a 1961 Act proceeding weakens the submission. Our Section Finder maps between the two.
Yes. That covers residential status under Section 6 (which decides everything else and is frequently got wrong), NRI return filing, DTAA relief supported by a Tax Residency Certificate and Form 10F, lower or nil TDS certificates, TDS where an NRI sells property, NRO to NRE repatriation, and CA certificates for foreign remittance in Form 145 and Form 146 (earlier 15CA and 15CB). Foreign asset disclosure in Schedule FA and foreign tax credit in Form 67 are handled alongside. See our NRI tax consultant in Dwarka page.
Yes, and it is a substantial part of our Dwarka work — the area is largely cooperative group housing. We handle statutory audit under the Delhi Cooperative Societies Act, return filing with the principle of mutuality applied correctly to maintenance receipts, TDS on security, housekeeping and maintenance contracts the society signs, 12A and 80G registration for charitable trusts, and financial statements a managing committee can present and defend at the AGM. See RWA, society and trust audit.
Usually yes, through an updated return under Section 139(8A), available within 48 months from the end of the assessment year. The cost rises the longer you wait — additional tax of 25%, 50%, 60% or 70% depending on which year you file in, over and above the regular tax and interest. Two limits matter: an ITR-U cannot be used to claim a refund or reduce your declared tax, and it cannot be filed where assessment or search proceedings are already pending for that year. We check eligibility before starting. See ITR-U updated return filing.
At minimum: PAN linked with Aadhaar, Form 16, your AIS, TIS and Form 26AS downloads, bank statements, a pre-validated bank account for refunds, and proofs for the deductions you intend to claim. Capital gains cases need the broker statement, mutual fund CAS and property deeds; business cases need books, GST returns and the prior audit report; notice cases need the full notice PDF with its DIN. The checklist builder above generates a list for your specific profile.
All Dwarka sectors including 4, 6, 10, 12, 18B and 23, plus Dwarka Mor, Palam, Najafgarh, Uttam Nagar, Janakpuri and Vikaspuri. Beyond that, the wider Delhi NCR — Gurgaon, Noida, Faridabad and Ghaziabad — through our Dwarka and Rajendra Place offices, with online consultation Pan-India and for NRIs worldwide. If you are outside Dwarka, our CA near me in Delhi NCR page may be a better starting point.
Engagements are quoted consultatively after we understand the scope — the number of income heads, the volume of transactions, whether an audit is involved and how much reconstruction the records need. The initial consultation carries no charge, and you receive a clear scope and quote before any work begins. As a firm of practising Chartered Accountants we follow ICAI guidelines on professional conduct, which is why fees are discussed with you directly rather than advertised.
A return to file, a notice on your portal, an audit due, or books that need putting straight — tell us where you are and we will tell you what it takes. The first conversation is free and comes with no obligation.
