I have two issues that I need help on for filing return for AY: 2016-17
1) I filed the return on time but failed to sign the ITR V acknowledgement in time. Infact I havent sent it yet. Need help. 2) The return which I filed ( above) did not include a deduction of 31K under section 80D and I need to file a new/corrected return. Else, I will be liable of paying a tax of 5K which I am not supposed to.
Please suggest the best possible way to deal with this scenario. Do I need to first sent the signed ITRV for the first return and then submmit a corrected/revised return? OR can I bypass the first return ( without signing the ITR-V for it) and file a new return afresh?

Sir, I got mail from Income tax stating it as a defective return u/s 139(9). I then went to the incometax efiling site and clicked "efile" --> " efile in response to Notice u/s 139(9).
I was able to see the below.
Error Code = 38 Error Description = Tax liability is shown as payable in the return of Income Probable Resolution = The tax payer should pay the balance tax liability and furnish complete details in the corrected xml. Kindly ensure that there is no tax payable at the time of uploading the corrected XML.
where upon I mentioned it is not defect by selecting "N" in the "Do you agree with the defect" Also in the remark section I mentioned.. "I missed out on certain fields of the medical insurance causing me to show tax payable instead of tax refund"
I further clicked "Submit" . Error Code Error Description Probable Resolution Do you agree with the defect Assessee Remarks 38 Tax liability is shown as payable in the return of Income The tax payer should pay the balance tax liability and furnish complete details in the corrected xml.
