Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether it's possible to change your Income Tax Return (ITR) regime when filing a revised return. Unfortunately, you cannot switch tax regimes (from new to old or old to new) within the same assessment year, even for salaried individuals. Any revised return filed will be processed under the regime initially chosen.

No. Not accepted.  The revised ITR will be processed under NEW regime only.

If your gross total income is above 10 lacs individually then it's advisable to go for new tax regime.

Even salaried individual can't change the regime while filing revised return ? 

No. Tax regime cannot be changed in same assessment year.

Switching regime in a revised return:

• For salaried or non-business taxpayers, if the original ITR was filed by the due date (139(1)), you can file a revised return (139(5)) switching to the old regime within the revision window (31 December of the AY). The utility and CPC have generally accepted this.

• For business taxpayers, switching to the old regime needs Form 10-IEA by the due date. A revised return can't do it if 10-IEA wasn't filed in time.

• If the original was belated, the old regime isn't available.
