ITR - 3 Technical glitch

This query is : Resolved 

27 August 2025 While preparing my ITR-3 online for AY 2025-26 on the Income-tax e-filing portal, I notice the following issue in Part A – General Information:

I have already filed Form 10IEA (Ack No. 453xxxxxxx, Date 26-Jul-2025) to opt out of the new tax regime under section 115BAC(6).

The portal pre-populates these details, but the field “Do you wish to continue to opt out of New Tax Regime for current assessment year?” is ticked No.

On switching it to Yes, the acknowledgement number and date fields turn blank and field become grey non-editable.

In last AY 24-25, I Opted out New regime through filing form 10AEI. Portal pick up details acknowledgement and date automatically of Last FY 24-25 with ticked "Yes" but in Current FY 25-26 with ticked "No". It's preventing me filing ITR under Old Regime. When I continue it with blank field, and file the form, at the time of submission after verifying return by putting OTP, it throws error that you have opted out new regime by filing 10AEI, please provide acknowledgement no and date in relevant field. Any Solution????

27 August 2025 This year the ITR filing is bit complex.
In Schedule General... Filing Status (b)...Select set A...

Finally in 'Do you wish to opt out of New Tax Regime for current assessment year' select 'No'
(as you wish to file ITR in New Regime....)

29 August 2025 Sir, But I want to continue old regime, not new regime.

29 August 2025 As you had opted out of New regime last year, you should not have filed form 10IEA this year as you were already opted and were eligible for Old regime till you opt out again. As you have filed form 10IEA this year means you opted out of old regime. So, now you cannot opt Old regime again, file ITR under New regime...

21 September 2025 Good luck....
