I forgot to mention HRA component in my salary when filing ITR2 and have received demand notice as I have claimed exemption for HRA. Everything else remains the same. My questions are

1. Can I rectify this mistake by filing rectification u/s 154?

2. The income tax portal doesn't allow filing such rectification yet. So what should I do? Deadline for paying the demand is fast approaching.

3. This was for AY20-21, I used the X M L utility to fix the mistake and generate new X M L. However, it still applies interests and feels (u/s 234) because it deems I am filing the (rectified) return now. Suppose I am able to rectify the return successfully, do I have to still pay these penalties as I am filing rectification now?

4. CPC Bangalore has current rectification rights? As recitification from efiling website is not possible, how can I transfer case to AO? I am not allowed to meet anyone at CPC Bangalore.

Any other ideas, and suggestions are most welcome!

Thanks in advance,

Best regards,

I ALSO TRIED BUT IT IS SHOWING INTEREST AND PENALTY, BUT IF YOUR LAST FILLING IS ALREADY REVISED IT WILL NOT CALCULATE INTEREST AND PENALTY, MORE THIS IS OFFLINE Return Data Correction, NO NEW INCOME OR DEDUCTION YOU HAVE TO CHANGE. YOU HAVE TO SUBMIT UNDER THE SAME SECTION IN THE LAST ITR SUBMITTED AS PER 143 1 WHAT I FEEL THEY WILL JUST CORRECT DATA THE REASON YOU WRITTEN IN COMMENTS, MORE THIS CORRECTION IS UNDER 154 YOU WILL SEE ON TOP WHEN CHOOSE YEAR AND SUBMIT, NATURALLY THEY WILL ISSUE NEW ORDER WHICH WILL BE BASED ON OLD ORDER. IF THEY ADJUSTED ANY REFUNDS YOU CAN ADD IN PAGE IT OF RETURN, CHECK YOUR 26AS SECTION C Details of Tax Paid (other than TDS or TCS) IF YOU DON'T WANT TO TAKE A CHANCE WAIT TILL ONLINE RECTIFICATION START, WHERE YOU CAN CHANGE PART WISE
