Why the appeal stage needs specialist handling
What sets our approach apart.
Strict limitation periods apply
An appeal must generally be filed within three months of the order, with a limited condonable extension, so timing is critical.
A pre-deposit is mandatory
Filing an appeal requires depositing a percentage of the disputed tax amount, which needs to be correctly computed and paid.
Grounds must be built on the original record
An effective appeal is grounded in the assessment or adjudication record, not just a general disagreement with the outcome.
