Rectification Return after 4 years
This query is : Resolved
Quick Summary
22 August 2025
Dear All,
We received a notice under section 143(1) from the Income Tax Department in 2014.
We are a society (residential complex).
The Income Tax Department has computed our income as per the Companies Act and not taxed it as per the normal tax slabs, hence we have been charged additional tax demand of Rs 2.19 lakhs.
And later, we received another notice under section 245 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 on 17-02-2023 to adjust the refund amount against the pending outstanding demand in the subsequent years. We did not file any rectification return from 2014 till the last notice received on 17-02-2023.
We filed the rectification return on 27-02-2023, 10 days after receiving the last notice under section 245. But till date the department has not taken any action on it.
As per Income Tax rules, rectification return should be filed within 4 years of notice issued by the department.
The demand is still pending and the portal is still calculating interest on it.
I need your suggestion.
Is there any way to complete the rectification return and delete the demand amount?
Before 2014 we were getting similar notices and we were filing rectification returns within the time limit prescribed by the Income Tax Department and the department was consistently accepting the correction returns and deleting the demands.
Regards

Rectification request may not be considered after such delay. You may contact ITO to request for condonation. Check if it can be helpful.
