Rectification of form 10e

30 December 2016

Hi experts,

While filing ITR for AY 2016-17 I had claimed for relief u/s 89. My ITR was successfully done, but I had missed submitting my form 10e online. When I realised this I submitted form 10e online, but the field to enter the exemption claimed u/s 89(1) was disabled in the form. So I filled all relevant details and submitted the form. Now I have got a notification from the IT department since there is a mismatch in the form 10e and the ITR submitted. So, i have two queries regarding this:

(1) Is there a possibility to rectify form 10e now? If yes, please guide me through the process.

(2) Is it possible that the field in which I need to mention the relief amount u/s 89 is disabled because I was trying to fill the form after filing ITR for the AY 2016-17?

Many thanks in advance for the kind help!

Hi Tanush,

Could you kindly be more elaborate on how to do this on the incometax site? I referred to another link on the income tax site (https://incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in/eFiling/Portal/StaticPDF/Rectifcation_Manual.pdf) as per which I tried the following:

1) On the incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in portal I can selected 'Rectification Rrequest'.

2) After entering the relevant details, it asks me for three options. I selected - 'Taxpayer is correcting the data in rectification'.

3) Then I am required to upload an XML file. When I download 'Pre-filled XML' file from incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in portal --> 'My Account' , I do not see any mention of the details entered by me in form 10e.

What am I missing here? Kindly help!

Dear experts,

Could you kindly let me know how to rectify the following mistakes done by me:

- Filled in ITR-1 instead of filing ITR-2.

- Claimed a sum under section 89 while I should have claimed under section 90

- Filled form 10e and that too wrong resuting in a demand order.

So basically now I need to cancel my ITR-1, fill in ITR-2, claim relief u/s 90, nullify form 10e and respond to the demand order. I understand the mistakes on my part, but how should I proceed?

Could you kindly suggest me on this please?

Regards,

Tapas K. Chowdhury
