Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a recurring error encountered when uploading rectified Income Tax Returns (ITR), specifically for charitable institutions filing ITR 7. The error message, "There is a change in the return filing section type...", prevents rectification even when no income details have been altered. Participants share their experiences and seek solutions, with suggestions including filing a grievance or appeal. The issue seems to persist for users registered under Section 12AA, where the system incorrectly flags them as not registered under Section 2(15).

Which ITR you are filing?

ITR 7 was the original return filed. I am proposing to make a rectification.

Whether you have received any intimation order?

If not, what is it that you are going to rectify?

Yes I have received intimation u/s 143(1).

Yes, you can rectify any mistake as per section 154,

i.e. .... any mistake apparent from the record can be rectified by the Income Tax Authorities, but cannot change the income details as per original ITR.

Thank you for the response but there is the error popping as stated in the query above.

Also no income details were changed.

what should be the proposed solution for the error.

Refer:; 

1. rectify-income-tax-return-u-s-154-1-rectification-request

OR .. 2. tax-services/request-for-rectification

Thank you for the link Sir.

But again, following the procedure and steps available for filing the rectification return the error is coming which I am not able to solve.

Is there any solution to that particular error, than please do let me know.

The error should not arise, if the procedure is followed properly...

Still if you are getting error, file complaint under 'Grievances.'
