Hi, I was checking my last year's return (AY 23-24) and realised I had received interest on the amount that the income tax had refunded.
For this year (AY 24-25) I recalled there was a section in Schedule OS: "Interest Gross -> From Income Tax refund" I left it blank :(
My current ITR (AY 24-25) is not yet processed. What should I do now? I'm a bit scared.
I searched online, and I think I need to file revised return. In the original return I had offset profit from this year from brought forward loss from last year. Will I still be able to do that with revised return (since its past due date now)?

Yes, you can file revised return u/s. 139(5) IT act, for the addition of interest income. You can even offset the past losses in the revised return as claimed in original return.
