Error in Filing ITR-U for AY 2021-22 of Partnership Firm


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses an error encountered when filing an updated Income Tax Return (ITR-U) for a partnership firm for Assessment Year 2021-22. The error relates to filling specific clauses in the Balance Sheet and Profit & Loss account when books of accounts are not maintained under Section 44AA. The solution involves filling the 'No Account Case Columns' in these sections. Additionally, it highlights that the deadline for filing ITR-U for AY 2021-22 has been extended to 31 March 2026, but filing incurs additional tax, interest, and potential late fees, and cannot be used to reduce tax liability.

"clause 6 of Balance Sheet and any of the clause 62 to 66 of profit and loss account as applicable are to be filled if books of accounts are not maintained u/s 44AA"

17 August 2025 Good news—you can now correct errors in an ITR-3 (for partnership firms) for AY 2021-22 using ITR-U. This facility is currently functional on the Income Tax portal.
Here’s what you must know for a smooth update:
Deadline Extended: Thanks to Budget 2025, you have until 31 March 2026 to file ITR-U for AY 2021-22—double the previous limit.
Extra Charges Apply: Prepare for additional tax on the increased liability—25% if filed within 12 months, escalating to 70% if filed in the fourth year—plus interest and possible late fees.
No Reduction Allowed: ITR-U can't be used to reduce your tax liability or claim refunds—it’s strictly for correcting understatements or omissions.
Act Promptly: Filing sooner minimizes extra tax and statutory costs.
In summary: If you’ve identified errors in your AY 2021-22 ITR-3 filing, ITR-U offers a legitimate path to corrections, but you must act before 31 March 2026 and account for higher tax liability.
