Unable to submit the ITR defective return online

I Filed an ITR online and got a notice from department that there is a defect that need to be corrected, 139(9) with error code 202. I corrected by using XML and try to upload the same, getting below error:

"At line number 41: Invalid content was found starting with element 'RecieptNo' ....... is expected."

But i have double checked and see that Reciept number is correct, it was 15 digit ITR acknowledge number. It is not allowing me to submit through online.

Kindly suggest next steps and how can i rectify this over online.

 

Thanks.

Use latest version of ITR1 released on 01.08.2019 on e filing site.

Sir, I have used latest version only as you mentioned, still same error.

Have you validated the ITR?

Check that you are filing the return u/s. 139(9) of the act.

Sir, i have used the Excel format instead XML, its worked for me. I have uploaded successfully.

 

Thank you for your support.
