Users are encountering an 'invalid hash value' error when trying to upload ITR 5 forms generated from Excel. Additionally, the JSON utility option for partnership firms within ITR 5 is not readily available or is outdated. The issue stems from bugs in the Excel utility and the conversion process to JSON. A new, updated version of the ITR 5 utility (v1.0.2) has now been released, which should resolve these problems.

Excel utility is having bugs. Conversion to Jason while uploading is not accepted by system, hence the error. Jason utility available under ITR 5 separately, but it is very old, not bug-free. Wait for upgraded version of Jason.
