Whether he died in 2022 or 2023? 

You should have informed the ITO about his demise..

If ITR u/s. 44AD has already been filed, let ITO assessed the case based on the same.

Date of death 15/01/2023

Just inform in writing about his death, to ITO with a copy of death certificate.

Add the legal representative and file ITR
The legal representative must pay the liability.
Legal representative is just for signatory purposes only
