19 September 2016 Dear Experts,
I had filed my IT return for AY 2015-16 with the refund within month
refund has been credited in my bank
account but now i came to know i was also eligible to claim the deduction u/s 80GG due to unwareness i had not claimed the same. Pls tell me can i take deduction of AY 2015-16 in AY 2016-17 if so? Pls guide me how can i file the claim of deduction 80GG for AY 2015-16,

Regard

19 September 2016 As per section 139(5), the revised return can be filed before the expiry of one year from the end of the relevant assessment year or before the completion of assessment, whichever is earlier. Thus return of A.Y 2011-12 can be revised till 31st March 2013 or before the completion of the assessment whichever is earlier.
→ Revise tax returns within one year from the end of the assessment year or before the assessment. For the financial year 2014-15 one can filed the revised return up to march 2017.
→ You can’t refile your return if income tax department already did the assessment of your return.

19 September 2016 Yes i can't refile or revise the return as the assessment has already been done & has received the refund also therefore No question of refile or revise here but pls confirm since i was eligible for 80GG of FY 2014-15 can i claim the same in FY 2015-16 on the behalf of rent receipt,
