Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a common income tax defect where GST is included in the gross receipts shown in Form 26AS, leading to a defective return. The advice given is to declare profit based on the total receipts as shown in 26AS, even though it's a technical mistake caused by customers. While the tax authority is responsible for rectifying AIS/26AS, the taxpayer must submit their return correctly based on the information provided.

Though its technical mistake, but you have to declare profit based on TOTAL RECEIPS. As form 26AS states your receipts as inclusive of GST(which is the mistake of your customers,) you have to accept it as your gross receipts.

It's the responsibility of the authority to rectify the AIS/26AS.IF THE QUERIST HAS SUMITTED ANY DEFECTIVE then it's the responsibility of the taxpayer.
