Dear Sir Today I filed my IT return successfully. But I received message for the department that my IT return is defective u/s 139 (9) of IT act. I filed IT return by choosing ITR1 Form. Please note I have income from under Sec 194C Rs.1,92,203/- & TDS credited Rs.1,924/-, and interest received from fixed deposit from Finance company u/s Sec 194A Rs.1,329/- and no TDS credited and as per 26AS. Following are the message received from the department. You have filed your income-tax return in form ITR-1. As per TDS details in your Form 26AS, taxes have been deducted under sections 194IA/194IC/194M/194S/194C/194B/194BB/194BA, etc. of the Income-tax Act, 1961. These sections are reflected as (4IA/4IC/94M/94S/94C/94B/4BB/4BA) in Form 26AS. These sections imply heads of income for which form no. ITR-1 is not the appropriate form. Thus, the required schedules for reporting incomes pertaining to said TDS sections are not present in your return of income filed in form no. ITR-1. You are being provided with an opportunity to make necessary corrections and file a return of income in the appropriate form so that income and taxes may be determined correctly in accordance with the Income-tax Act, 1961 duly disclosing the complete gross receipts/income reflecting in your form 26AS under the relevant schedules of the ITR. Please note that as per Rule 37BA of the Income-tax Rules, credit of TDS is allowable to the person in whose hands the income is assessable and in the year (AY) in which such income is assessable. Please note that if the defect is not addressed with-in the time allowed, your return of income will be treated as invalid. Now I request you to guide me how to rectify my. IT return. Thanks & Regards Subramanian V.
