This is done voluntarily by the taxpayer while filing the return of income. It involves:

Paying self-assessment tax, if applicable.
2. Summary Assessment (u/s 143(1))
Automated processing by the CPC (Central Processing Centre)
Intimation sent with tax payable/refundable details.
3. Scrutiny Assessment (u/s 143(3))

4. Best Judgment Assessment (u/s 144)
Carried out when the taxpayer fails to respond to notices or file returns.
5. Reassessment (u/s 147/148)
