15 February 2019 I filed my ITR for 2018-19. CPC sent me a notice u/s 143(1)(a) for a minor error and adjustment in tax refund and asking to respond within 30 days, failing which necessary adjustment will be done with out further opportunity. Unfortunately I could not respond with in 30 days. I am willing to agree for the adjustment and not contesting the same. Now 60 days are over from date of notice, but my Return is not processed and refund is stuck. I can not respond to Notice on the portal as the button to respond is disabled after lapse of 30 days. What should I do? Should I file revised return to take care of the discrepancy pointed out, without reference to notice u/s 143(1)(a)?

will be issued accordingly vide 2nd proviso to 143(1(a).
