Hello,

I have filed the returns using ITR 4 form before the due date in mid-July.

On the incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in website, I see under Dashboard - Pending Actions there is a defect u/s 139(9) in my return. But till date, I have not received any notice via email. I am not able to upload the new XML because I don't have the PIN and other details that come with the notice. 

Please let me know what I should do. Should I just wait for the IT Dept to send me the notice via email ??

Thanks,

Srividya
