I am a salaried person. I had e-filed my Income Tax Return for AY 11-12.
In the return, I made an error. I considered gross salary without taking effect of HRA exemptions and other exemptions(Form 16 shows these exemptions).
Now, I have received a demand from CPC.
What should I do?
I cannot submit a rectification request because as per rectification manual, there should not be any revision in income figures or new claims since then the rectification request would be rejected or rectification would be delayed. It may be clearly noted that this facility is only for correcting mistakes apparent from record.

As per the case of S.R. Koshti v. CIT {2005}(GUJ HC) and CIT v. Rajesh Jhaveri Stock Brokers (P.) Ltd. {2007}(SC), an intmation under section 143(1) can not be considered as assessment.
Hence assessment as per the above decision means assessment made u/s 143(3) and 144.
Conclusion:- In your case assessment is not completed and you can definetly file the revised return.
