Mr A filed the return under section 139(1) for FY 2019-20 declaring income NIL. there was refund of Rs 6,600. he also received the interest on this refund of Rs 360. The income was reported under the wrong heads in the original return. He filed the updated return under section 139 (8A). The income reported in updated return is NIL under correct heads of income. He also paid the additional tax payable of Rs 540 calculated as 50% of Tax + interest i.e. 50% of (0+360) + 360 under section 140B. Is this return a valid return as the income reported is NIl but there are additional taxes paid calculated as per formula of 140B.
