Notice u/s 139(9) - Problem in e-proceeding

Sir/ Madam,

I got a notice u/s 139(9) advising me to correct my I T Return for the AY: 2020-2021 after incorporating P&L and BS -as per law I am required to maintain accounts u/s 44AA - which I did not give in my original return .

Now, I downloaded ITR for AY 2020-2021  and revised my earlier Return - the options available are: 139(1), 139(4) , 139(5), 92CD and 119 (2)b.

I chose the option "u/s 139(5) and duly filled up. While uploading the X M L. through e-proceeding tab, it is saying" You are not authorised to do this" , Last date of submission of reply  is 12.10.2021.

Kindly advise me what to do.

Quick Summary
A user received a Section 139(9) notice for their Income Tax Return, requiring them to incorporate Profit & Loss and Balance Sheet due to not maintaining accounts under Section 44AA. After revising the return, they encountered an 'unauthorised' error when uploading via the e-proceeding tab. Advice suggests the revised return should be filed under Section 139(9) through the 'Response to Defective Notice' link, and if unavailable, a grievance should be filed, requesting an extension.

The option should have been 139(9). .....

& it should be uploaded through the like provided under 'Response to Defective Notice' ....

If you do not find the link after login, file complaint under Grievance. Also ask for extension of time period.

139 (9) is a defective return.
So the filing must have been through 139 (9) , because the Assessing officer has already sent the notice stating its a defective return.

Thank you , sirs. Let me try once again.
