Zydus Healthcare Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Zydus Life received an intimation under section 143(1) of the IT Act for the assessment year 2023-2024 from the CPC, Income Tax Department.
The tax intimation has been sent for not llowed claim for deduction under sections 80-IE and 80-JJAA
of the IT Act without any basis, given short credit of taxes deducted/paid while processing its return of income.
Based on the assessment and advice of the counsel, ZHL does not expect the said intimation to have any material financial impact as the above-mentioned adjustments are not sustainable in law and are wholly defendable on the facts of the case.
