We got a notice for defective return for AY 2020-21. However, we are not getting any option to file a revised return in response to this.

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses the challenge of filing a revised return in response to a defective return notice for AY 2020-21 on the new income tax portal. Users are seeking guidance on locating the correct options, particularly within 'Pending Actions' or 'E-Proceeding' tabs. The advice suggests using the ITR utility to generate an XML file, specifically selecting 'Filed in response to notice u/s 139(9)'. However, some users report issues with this option not appearing or the 'Submit' button being disabled, leading to suggestions of filing grievances and waiting for portal updates.

Have you checked any option under 'Pending Actions' .......... Sub tab --- 'E-Proceeding' or 'Worklist'???

In my case it is showing under ' E-Proceeding tab'. I have agreed with their query/ defect.  Thereafter , asking for X M L file. Under what section a fresh return has to be filed? This is for AY 2020-21.  Need I to download fresh ITR -3 for AY 2020-21 under new portal ?

Yes, Upload the correct XML and Click the Submit button. Generate the XML by choosing 'Filed in response to notice u/s' as '139(9)'in the ITR utility.

Dhirajlal Rambhia Sir,

I have downloaded a new ITR-3 fir the AY 2020-21,but there is no option to choose " Filed in response to notice u/s as '139(9)' in the ITR utility.

I lodged complaint through Grievance Tab few days back, but no response yet.

Generate the XML by choosing 'Filed in response to notice u/s' as '139(9)'in the ITR utility.

File complain under Grievance for not able to prepare return u/s. 139(9), and ask for extension of time to reply.

Once 'Tab' opens file the return u/s. 139(9).

keep your X M L file ready soon tabs will open, the portal is not yet updated. 

keep your X M L file ready soon tabs will open, the portal is not yet updated. 

It gets opened for the assessee to whom defective notice sent. (under compliance).

Please wait rectification tabs not available now, only reprocess itr is available and one more u/s 234 , you can register grievance but may not give result, any mistake normally can be repaired after uploading revised ITR , new system still not available as rectification tabs missing.

I have 5 cases of TDs mismatch, by mistake the person who helped to file return he inserted credit to others against credit to self , more he filled pan of others, don't know from where he got pan numbers, normally 26 as bolta have only TAN, even if you file for others then ITR utility should not calculate TDS paid, may be utility error, any way we have to submit rectification process. Portal is dead for rectification under 143, 154, etc
