Hello,
One of my client had filled ITR for AY 2011-12 for about 14000. The acknowledgment was posted and the ITR processed successfully.
Next year, the AY 2012-13 form 16 had Income tax of 8380 which was deducted by the employer. While filling ITR, AY 2011-12 IT was revised (instead of filling for AY 2012-13) using form 16 of 2012-13 for which the acknowledgment was successfully posted. This lead to a demand generated for 8380 for AY 2011-12.
How can this be rectified and closed?
File rectification u/s 154
You still have time to file a rectification application u/s 154. But for that the mistake should be apperent from the face of ROI. Try filing the rectification application u/s 154 to the jurisdictional AO, give a copy of RETURNS of both AY in question, give a copy of Form 26AS, define your case clearly, be ready to spend 'dakshina' of about Rs.500-1000. It may be decided in your favour. Remember to pay 'dakshina' only when he has rectified your return and you have the screenshot of rectification processed in your own hands.
