Quick Summary
If you've received a defective return notice, you generally need to address it by replying with an updated XML file. You can then file a revised return (u/s 139(9)) after correcting the errors identified in the notice. Even if you are due a refund, it's important to rectify the defect first.

You have to reply for the defective return notice with the updated XML file of your return. I'm leaving the details in your inbox if you need any help.
