The sentence is grammatically correct, but it can be slightly refined for clarity and formality.
The phrase "for the same" is often considered somewhat awkward or redundant in formal writing. A clearer and more common expression would be "for your letter" or "for the information" (depending on context).
Refined Sentence: Having received your letter this morning, we are writing to thank you for it.
