Regarding revising an E-filed Audit Report under Section 44AB:
Can you revise the audit report once filed? No, you cannot directly revise an already e-filed Audit Report under Section 44AB. Once the audit report is submitted electronically to the Income Tax Department, there is no facility provided to file a revised audit report separately. The system does not allow re-uploading or revising the same audit report for the same Assessment Year. What to do if there is a mistake or correction required? You can prepare a revised audit report offline incorporating the corrections. Then, submit a rectification request or respond to any query raised by the assessing officer, attaching the revised report as a supporting document. Alternatively, the taxpayer can file a revised income tax return (if applicable) and attach the corrected audit report along with an explanation. If the mistake is serious, you can also approach the assessing officer or jurisdictional income tax office with the revised report and request for its acceptance.
