Users are encountering an error when validating ITR 3, specifically with the quarterly breakup of dividend income not tallying. Despite repeated checks, the validation fails, showing the entire dividend in the first quarter. One suggested workaround involves entering the total dividend in the first quarter and manually inputting 'O' for the remaining quarters, although this may have implications. Alternatively, users can wait for a revised utility update.
While validating ITR 3, it gives error for quarterly breakup of dividend not tallied. I have done that number of time and confirmed but while validating it gives the same error and clicking on the same error message, entire dividend amount comes in first column and rest of the figures remain same as per quarterly bifurcation in item 10 of schedule Other Sources. How to resolve this issue?

It is a defect in the utility. If you really wish to get out of it, fill total dividend amount in first column and manually fill 'O' in rest all quarters. Though it may not be true and liable for interest but that is the way we have resolved the issue & uploaded so many ITRs. Other option is to wait for new revised utility in hope that the issue gets resolved.
