Sir I filed my original return u/s 12 (after due date) on 01/08/2014 & got my ack no. But later on found that my email id was wrongly entered, so filed a revised return u/s 17 on the same day i.e 01/08/2014.
I have read somewhere that revised return can only be filled if original is filled before due date i.e u/s 11, otherwise a penalty of Rs5000 will be charged.
What will happen in my case as I will be getting a refund amount of approx Rs7000 also? Have I made a mistake by filing revised return or is it ok/ under the norms??

But I have already filed my revised return. The difference in my Original & Revised is only the email address, rest is all same. Both were filed on same date i.e 01/08/2014.

Hereโs a clear explanation for your situation with the revised return filed after the due date:
๐ Situation Summary: You filed your original ITR under Section 12 (after due date) on 01/08/2014. Same day, you filed a revised return under Section 17 to correct the email ID only. You read that revised returns are allowed only if the original return was filed before the due date (Section 11). Concerned about whether your revised return is valid and if there will be a penalty. Expecting a refund of about Rs. 7,000. โ What the Law Says: Revised Return (u/s 17) is allowed only if the original return was filed on or before the due date (u/s 11). Since your original return was filed after the due date (u/s 12), your revised return is generally not valid. Filing a revised return after due date may not be accepted by the Income Tax Department. There is no penalty simply for filing revised return; penalty applies for non-filing or incorrect filing. Minor corrections such as email ID do not affect your refund or tax computation. โ What Should You Do Now? Donโt worry about penalty or refund. The email ID error is minor and does not impact refund processing. Send the original ITR-V (Acknowledgement) to CPC, Income Tax Department. This will complete your filing process and help in processing your refund. If the revised return is not processed, the department will process the original return. You may ignore the revised return, since it was only to correct email ID and the rest of the data is unchanged. ๐ In Short: You have not made a serious mistake by filing the revised return. The revised return filed after due date is usually not accepted, but it won't cause penalty or affect refund. Ensure you send ITR-V of the original return if not already done. Wait for the refund processing as per original return details.
