Help regarding 139(9) defective return

I have submitted my income tax return and it is processed as defective return with notice 139(9).

I have submitted the response by disagreeing with the defective return notice 139(9).

There has been no response since I submitted my response.

What happens next?

Should I do anything other than this?

Kindly guide me in this please.
