Anybody filed ITR-3 with exempt income?

Has any body ITR-3 where they have some exempt income credited to profit and loss account? As already stated by me in an earlier post, error message comes at the time of uploading ITR stating that exempt income credited to P&L as per Schedule BP does not tally with exempt income per EI schedule, though I have typed same amount at both places. CPC informed me over phone that they have fixed the issue without actually solving the same. Just want to know whether any body has same problem or they are able to file ITR-3 in the above situation.

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a common error encountered when filing ITR-3 with exempt income, specifically a mismatch between the Profit & Loss account and the Exempt Income schedule. A user shares a successful workaround provided by CPC: entering '0' for Gross Agricultural Receipt in the EI schedule. This bypasses the error message, allowing ITR-3 filing until the system is officially rectified. Other users also discuss related filing issues and software discrepancies.

Problem now solved. In Schedule 'EI', select Gross Agricultural Receipt and put 0 (zero). Save and proceed. The error message will not appear! This is as per CPC's advice to me and I have filed ITR-3. Till CPC rectifies the System, this is the solution.

👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks a lot sir ...... you have solved my problem

@ CA Rashmi Gandhi. Welcome. I also understand that in some private software, this problem does not arise. Probably, by default, all non-filled up numerical fields would have been filled up as zero in that software.

Rama cpc does not give any advice while filing.

@ sabyasachi mukherjee The advice is on how to avoid error message and not any interpretation of law. When I raised the grievance, CPC after talking to me over phone three or four times, finally identified the bug and gave me the solution. This solution is described by me as advice. That's all.

@ deep1976 I don't know which issue you face. I have given the solution for the particular issue I face. If you have any other issue, you may also additionally raise the same in public grievance portal of Govt of India.

@ deep1976 I filed ITR-3. I have no liabilities at all.
