I filed my ITR (belated or after due date) for AY 21-22 in march. Filed my return as per new tax regime and also filed form 10 IE. Today I got intimation order in which tax was calculated in old tax regime. And also no deduction U/s 80C were considered. There was no clarification from department about belated return for new tax regime. Please guide. Thank you

Its not injustice, when you had not claimed it in ITR, how could the system know about your investment in relation to sec. 80C or expenditure as per sec. 80D? While the rule to opt for new regime was very clear that the form 10IE needed to be filed before filing return u/s. 139(1) of the act. Now file rectification request u/s. 154 of the act, and claim the deductions. Though I doubt whether the same would be allowed, but no harm in claiming.
