Mistake in filing e-return but itr-v not sent to bangalore

Hello,

A major mistake has been made in filing of a return. The e-return has been filed for AY 2011-12 on March 27 2012. Since its a belated return, it cannot be revised. However, thr ITR-V has not been signed and sent to Bangalore.

Is it possible that I re-file the return and sent the ITR-V of the refiled return to Bangalore? Will the system accept that?

Hi Ankit,

I've actually made a clerical mistake in filing the return. So can I re-file the e-return? Obviously its a belated return so it cannot be revised. But what I'm doing here is re-filing it since the original one which was filed has not been verified. Is this allowed?

Although a belated return filed u/s 139(4) cannot revised, I did try to revise the return u/s 139(5) and I could go through. I now have the acknowledgment of the revised return also. Now I want to ask the following:

1) Should I sign and just sent the revised return or should I also sign the original return? I think I should send both because only a return filed can be revised.

2) Can the Department reject the revised return even after the system has accepted it and created an acknowledgement?

3) Actually the mistake is a clerical mistake. The income shown is correct but tax is in-correct as I'd mistakenly shown wrong income and pressed the button 'calculate tax payable' but after correcting the income I forgot to press that button again. So I believe this is a 'mistake apparent for record' for the purpose of Sec 154 or arithematical error for the purose of 143(1)??

Ok thanks Ankit, Just assuming that I do not file a revised return but send the verification for the original return:

Hi Ankit,

I have a similar problem as Yashar...the only differences are that

(1) I filled the Return online for AY 2011-12 on 5/4/2012 (I presume this is after due date) and

(2) I made a mistake in calculating the TDS wherby I wrongly calculated the tax paid by the deductors as self paid which lead to wrong calculation of Tax Payable/Refundable.

I did receive the ITR-V which I have to send it to Banaglore. I have not yet sent it though. Now my questions are:

1) Should I send the ITR-V signed to Banaglore and wait for the intimation 143(1) for rectification?

2) Is there any option of revising the details online whereby I receive a revised ITR-V for sending to Bangalore?

Please respond.
