ITR Filing 12677 views 14 replies

While uploading the Income Tax Return (ITR7 AY 2019-20), I am getting an error “The XML Schema is invalid. Please upload the XML in the correct schema”.

What does this error mean?

Downloaded and generated the XML from the ‘Return Preparation Software’ of the relevant Assessment Year and The same Assessment Year selected while uploading the Income Tax Return.

Download the latest utility released on 01.08.2019 from the incometaxefiling site and use that.

I AM USING LATEST ONLY.

 

It always mentions the line number of error. Open the XML in notepad ++ and look for the same line number

may be some bug. Download again plz
