A middle-aged juice seller, who runs a small kiosk at the district court compound here, was left in shock after allegedly receiving an income tax notice seeking an outstanding payment of Rs 7.79 crore.<\/p>\n
Mohammed Rahees, a resident of working-class locality Sarai Rehman, was dumbfounded when he received the notice on March 18.<\/p>\n
Unsure of how to respond, he immediately sought help from friends to understand the contents of the official letter, which directed him to reply by March 28.<\/p>\n
Speaking to the media, Rahees said, “I was advised to consult an income tax lawyer, who told me to gather my bank account records before he could draft a response.” Rahees, who earns barely Rs 400 a day, supports his entire family, including his elderly and ailing parents. The unexpected notice has left him deeply distressed, he claimed.<\/p>\n
“The shock of this notice has triggered severe anxiety, and my blood pressure has shot up. I don’t know how to deal with this crisis,” he said.<\/p>\n
He also mentioned that his mother, who suffers from depression, has been further affected by the fear and uncertainty surrounding the situation.<\/p>\n
