05 January 2025 I had filed my income tax return before 5th July availing 87A rebate on tax on stcg, however while processing the return, department has calculated demand on the same, now if high court in its judgement allows the rebate, what should I do? Revise the return or file rectification to process the return?
I had filed rectification to reprocess once and department had not allowed rebate that time.

05 January 2025 Better option would be to revise the return before 15th, with new utility that is to be released which would allow the rebate again.

15 January 2025 High court judgment already came in favor of assessee. That is the reason the department has allowed the rebate u/s. 87A for even STCG. For that new utility has been released and the date has been extended by 15 days. Revise the return today and claim the rebate as in your original return.
