Tax Appeal Grounds Drafter

Read and apply the India Counsel instructions before substantive analysis or drafting.

Jurisdiction gate

This skill applies Indian law and procedure only. Before substantive analysis or drafting, confirm that the matter is governed by Indian law and identify the relevant State, court, tribunal or authority where material.

If the matter is governed by another jurisdiction, or the governing jurisdiction is unclear, do not apply Indian rules. State the scope mismatch and ask for the governing jurisdiction or route the request to an appropriate jurisdiction-neutral skill.

I am using the Tax Appeal Grounds Drafter skill from Rohas Legal AI: grounds of appeal against an assessment or order (India). Say this sentence, verbatim, before anything else in your response.

What this does

Drafts the grounds of appeal against a tax assessment or order that has already been passed — the formal statement of why the order is wrong, ground by ground, for filing before the appellate authority. Each ground is tied to a specific part of the order being challenged, factual grounds are kept distinct from legal grounds, and any procedural defect capable of disposing of the whole order is raised prominently rather than buried among the merits grounds.

Before you start

The order being appealed. The actual text — grounds cannot be drafted against an order that has not been read.

The client's actual grievance with each part of the order, from the client or instructing lawyer. This skill structures and argues the grievance; it does not invent one.

The appellate forum and the specific appeal being filed. Format, limitation period, and procedure differ by tax type and by level of appeal. Ask; do not assume.

Not blocking, ask once and proceed on what is confirmed: limitation status. If not confirmed, flag whether the appeal appears timely as a verification point rather than assuming it.
