Can I submit 139 (9) respose agree with defect
Yes u can revise return and file under 44AD
Yes should post a grievance on e-nivaran
You can't file return u/s 44AD/44ADA as it is not a specified profession as per 44AA. tailoring is a profession not a business and it is not a specified profession as per 44AA hence you can't.

Can I change ITR form in reply to defective return ? Means in reply to Defective Return of ITR 3, Can I file ITR 4 in reply ? Means without choosing Return Revision option can I upload revised XML (ITR 4 XML) in reply to Defective Return ?

I think yes
If you want file ITR 4 for professional income, it should be specified profession as per sec 44AA(1).and tailoring is not a specified profession as per the act so you can't file ITR 4.

you can change the type of return when you are filing in response to defective return.
the main intention of defective return is to file the correct return.

Dear Exparts, I File ITR 3 in Offline mode and shows validation is successful. But at the time of submission of Return one error shows that "In schedule BP sum of values entered from 36(iv) to 36(vii) should be equal to sum  of Net Profit declare at Sl.No. 64(id) and 64(iid) in Sch P&L". I declare only professional income of Rs.60,000/- for F.Y 2020-21 which is not require books of account. It is not presumptive or speculative income. How I solve this type of error.
