Rectification u/s 154

Hello Tax Experts,

I received the following message from IT Department

"Dear Taxpayer, claim of relief u/s 89 of IT Act disallowed inadvertently. Error is regretted. Order u/s 154 rectifying the intimation will be issued expeditiously"

Kindly advice on next steps.

Quick Summary
The Income Tax Department has acknowledged an inadvertent error in disallowing relief under Section 89 and will issue an order under Section 154 to rectify the intimation. Many taxpayers have received similar messages, indicating a potential widespread issue. While the department regrets the error and promises expeditious rectification, some taxpayers report delays in receiving the rectification order and subsequent refunds, even after filing grievances.

i still didnt understand why people ...

Error regretted by CPC. will be rectified by CPC expeditiously. That's it.
I think the querist needs to hv a explicit reply.
I also received same message on 12 December 2020. One month passed still not received any order from department rectifying intimation. Also filed grievance for this but till date department has not taken any step to rectify their mistake. Due to which refund has been stucked up unnecessarily. They processed return after 4-5 months that also with error. Now what to do please suggest any measure if anyone have any idea about this issue ?
Order u/sec 154 is applicable when :
a. to rectify any mistake apparent from record , an income tax authority may ammend the following orders:
b.an intimation or deemed intimation
c.ammend any intimation under sec 200A(1)
IF any abovementioned order has been subject matter of an appeal then it can be ammended by Assesing Officer under sec 154.
