12 May 2013 Hello everyone,

I had filed manual return of my client for AY 2010-11 on 09/08/2010 showing GTI Rs.29660/-and claiming refund of Rs.2966/-

Thereafter some other consultant again filed the original return of my client for AY 2010-11 on 07/01/2011 manually Claiming NIL refund.

As per my knowledge, 2nd ITR is invalid because once the original return is filed thereafter only revised return can be filed.

My client has yet not received refund for the aforesaid AY.

WHat should i do to get the refun ?

Waiting for the views of the experts.

12 May 2013 Second return is invalid because your first return was filed late. And therefore can't be revised. Therefore the second return has nil value. And for the purpose of refund you can contact the AO to whom the return was filed. Ask him wether the return had been processed or not. If not been processed than wait till the time it gets processed. If the same had been processed than file a rectification application under section 154.

27 June 2013 No second return can be treated as revised return if it is filed in time. Till to-day processing has not been done. So you write a letter to the concerned officer if the returned income in both the returns are same for considering the original return as filed by you under the provisions of section 139(1)
