22 August 2018After filing of Form 15CB, if a CA needs to revise Form 15CB due to some clerical error in the arelier filed Form 15CB but before filing of Form 15CA by the taxpayer, then what should be the procedure?
Does filing of new Form 15CB and not linking the Old Form 15CB with form 15CA hold proper as a remedy to the above issue? Does the old unlinked Form 15CB expire on its own?

Leave that form as it is, it will be expired. and file a fresh form 15cb, and based on that form file 15ca.

Currently, the Income Tax portal does not allow revision or withdrawal of a filed Form 15CB. Once it's digitally signed and submitted, it becomes final. However, if Form 15CA has not yet been filed, the CA can take the following corrective steps:
Prepare and issue a new Form 15CB with the correct details.
The taxpayer must ignore the earlier Form 15CB and file a fresh Form 15CA based on the revised 15CB.
Inform the banker to consider only the updated Form 15CB and corresponding Form 15CA.
No penalty or formal withdrawal is required if Form 15CA hasn’t been filed yet. The earlier 15CB simply remains unused.
