Error during validation of itr

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a common error encountered when uploading an Income Tax Return (ITR), specifically when declaring income under sections like 44AD/44ADA/44AE, even if the gross total income is below the taxable slab. Users reported validation issues, particularly concerning the 'no account case' particulars. Several solutions are proposed, including clearing browser cache, trying a different browser, adjusting entries in Schedule BS, and toggling audit information settings. One effective fix involves temporarily selecting 'Yes' to opting for 44AD, saving, closing, and reopening the application before selecting 'No'. Another solution involves deleting the presumptive income tab if it's auto-filled from a previous year but not applicable this year.

(i) Close all Applications. Clear temporary cookies. Type Windows key +R --> Type %temp% -->Select All and Delete. Some files would still remain but that is fine. Most of them should be deleted

(ii) Open browser other than Chrome. I used Edge. Select settings and delete cookies and all history

(iii) Now open ITR portal in Edge and login

(iv) Resume Filing. Proceed to verification. You will get same error. Click on Hyperlink. It will lead to a section. In that there is an option nature of exempt income. Add one and type Not Applicable in descriptttion. Amount as 0. Save and Confirm

(v) Open BS Section --> In No accounts case, change Cash in Hand by some units. I had earlier put in 8500, I then changed to Rs. 8505. Save and Confirm

(vi) Go to Schedule General --> Open Audit Information Section. You would have selected No for all options. Now for all options one by one (I did for first one and it worked but you can try all just to be sure) , click Yes and Then No again. After this. Click Confirm

(vii) Proceed to Validation and then verification. It should work now.
