We appreciate the comments by Sinha and De [1] with respect to [2]. The transformation from a quarter- wavelength transmission line to the symmetric-T or -$\pi $ was proposed in [3]. Moreover, the transformation from transmission line with general electrical $\theta _{a}$ to the symmetric-T was provided in [4] as well. As shown in Fig. 1[2], with the special case $\theta _{X} = \theta _{1} = \theta _{2} = \theta _{A}$ , simplified equations are obtained in [1]. In addition, the value of impedance $Z_{A}$ should be proporly selected both in [1] and [2].
