Pension Misclassification and Correction in Filed ITRs

This query is : Resolved 

18 July 2025 Dear Sir/Madam,

I am URGENTLY writing to clarify a doubt/mistake regarding my previous ITRs filed.
So the case is that, I have been receiving a Pension of Rs. 36,315 since my Husband expired in 2017. The pension was actually bought by the ONGC (my Husband's former employer) through LIC. So, basically the pension is disbursed by the LIC, monthly. In 2017, a local C.A. filed the ITR and classified my Pension under the Family Pension Section (in Income from Other Sources) where I get a deduction of 1/3rd or Rs. 15,000. I recently read in a news article that the Pension received from an entity like LIC, SBI, etc. because of a Super-Annuity Policy is a Super Annuity Pension, and IS NOT a Family Pension. I also remember having a copy of the SuperAnnuity Policy sent to me by the LIC/ONGC.
So, is it correct that my previous ITRs are wrongly filed? Was the received Pension to be filled in the Salary Section with Rs. 50,000 or so Standard Deduction? If yes, is there a way I can appeal my previous ITRs and correct them? I also receive a pension of Rs. 1,300 from EPS-95.

Kindly clarify my doubts.

Thank You.

19 July 2025 No need to correct previous ITR in view of small amount involved.
From current year onwards file it under salary head.
