Assessee ( Salary assessee) filed return on 13-11-2015 for AY 2015-16.Return showed Rs. 1300 payable and not remitted while filing return.Return treated defective and communication dt 16-11-2015 via e-mail sent to assessee from CPC, Bangalore to remit tax and rectfy return.This notice remained unnoticed by assessee and the same notice was received by post two weeks back .Assessee now detects that actually some deductions like HRA exemptions were ommitted to be included in the original return and the return resulted in a demand instead of refund of about Rs.16000/(Refund would have resulted had the dedctions been included in original return.) Defect as pointed out is not rectifed till date.Since the original return was filed belatedly, what is the way to include the deductions ommitted and claim refund? Can assessee file a fresh return ( not revised return)?. No communication has been received from assessing officer concerned.

Time limit for rectification of defect is 15 days from the date of such intimation by way of filing return of income under section 139(9) [In return show that return filed u/s 139(9)]. However this time limit can be extended by Assessing officer on an application by the assessee. If such defect is not rectified within time limit than such return would be treated as invalid return.Hope this might help you out
