CHANGE IN TOTAL INCOME- RECTIFICATION U/ S 154

A user is seeking advice on filing a rectification under Section 154 of the Income Tax Act to correct an error in their client's FY 2017-18 ITR. The client incorrectly claimed 60% depreciation on computers and selected the wrong business code, leading to CPC rejecting the demand and adding back to total income. The user is encountering an error when trying to file the rectification because the system indicates total income should not change, despite a Rs. 11,779 increase. Advice suggests that a revised return under 154 cannot change income and recommends contacting the regional tax department or filing under Section 264 for bonafide mistakes.
