Help in return filling and rectification of error

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

A freelancer who mistakenly filed their first Income Tax Return (ITR) using ITR-4 under Section 44ADA is seeking advice on rectifying the error. They are concerned about losing presumptive taxation benefits and receiving a notice from the IT department. An expert has reassured them that filing the return is not an issue and that changing to ITR-3 will not forfeit the 5-year presumptive scheme benefit, as Section 44ADA is not binding.

11 November 2021 1 When you have already filed return, no need to change or to get worried, as it is not adversary.
2. If you wish you may change it to ITR 3, you will not loose the 5 year benefit, as you have filed it under sec. 44ADA, which is not binding as sec. 44AD.
