Query on rectification u/s 154

A very peculiar problem has come to my knowledge ..

A Salaried Person recieved compensation on acquisition of his land TDS was deducted on it @ 10%...Not being aware of the fact that Income from Salary and Capital Gains would be taken together for computing his total income, he filed his return online taking only salary income..

now after doin this he approached us to file his return with capital gains and claim a refund if possible...surprise

On checking his return status i found that the same has already been processed by the CPC...so revising the return is out more over his return was filed after due date....

i wanted to know if

1) i can upload rectification U/s 154 claiming the capital gain.

2) if so is there a time limit for uploading the same??

RZ'S  AS PER SEC. 139(4) OF INCOME TAX ACT 1961. A RETURN FILED AFTER DUE DATE i.e. BELATED RETURN CAN NOT REVISED.

 

THEREFOR IN YOUR CASE THE RETURN CAN NOT REVISED; AS THE RETURN FILE AFTER DUE DATE

Mr.RZ's

The onnly option left with you is file a revised return with the jurisdictional assessing officer.  After recieving the return he will issue a notice u/s 148. 

Then you can request the assessing officer to treat the revised retun filed, as a return filed in response to the notice u/s 148.

Then the assessment proceedings will start.

TDS shall be clamed when u offer the income to the revenu however u can requst the relevent assesment office to open your case and or ask for a rectifiacation
