Do I need to file Updated Return?

ITR 243 views 10 replies

For AY2021, I had received a demand u/s 143 (1) which I paid in December 2021. When I filed the return for AY23, I was eligible for a refund. However, I realized that this refund was rather adjusted against the tax demand for AY2021, even though I had already paid it. The amount paid also reflects in my 26AS. How could I get the credit for this amount in my ITR also such that I receive my refund for AY23 and and my future refunds aren't adjusted against this demand.

Automatically it gets adjusted.

Thanks. How long does it take? It's already been about 9 months. And this year's refund has been adjusted against that demand. 

U will have to raise a grivence with CPC
If you go through income tax Twitter you will find many such grivences raised
even after filing grivence with CPC matter does not gets resolved then make a grivence with your local AO jurisdiction as per your pan card
with all supportive documents
File rectification reprocess request

I filed the online rectification. It still came back with the demand. I thought of filing the offline rectification - but not sure which section to file it under. 

As i have suggested rectification will not help....raise grivence & approach AO of pan jurisdiction of your area

@ Pradeep Tewani,

You can also file Updated Return u/s 139(8A) for AY-2021-22

Updated return not for claiming refunds.....only to pay tax with penalty

Just read the query again. Tax was already paid for AY-2021-22

I still have not been able to resolve this. I raised multiple grievances online - but no resolution. How can i approach AO of my circle?
