Need your exppert opinion on the below scenerio which had happened with one of my friends.
I had filed ITR for AY 2022-23 for the concerned person and the same was processed with Rs 9000 Refund. But when the ITR processing email came, it shows that the refund has been adjusted against previous open case of AY 2020-21 in which Income Tax Department had raised a demand of Rs 56000/-.
When I checked that particular notice , I had found that the assessee had himself filed that Income Tax Return and had filled in wrong TAN Number in ITR as opposed to what was reflecting in Form 26 AS.
Now the scenerio is that Rs 56000 is already paid but against different TAN then what was mentioned in ITR. I have given my response on the case to the Department but am still awaiting an update from them on the same. Even the refund of Rs 9000 is also stopped due to this earlier case.
PLease suggest that does assessee has to file revised ITR for that concerned earlier year mentioning correct TAN Number or is the response to the notice online sufficient in this case.
Its been almost 2 months since i responded on the notice but I am yet to get an update from Department.
Kindly suggest with your valuable opinions as to how we should proceed further.

1. You should file rectification request u/s. 154 of the act, for AY 2020-21. Once the ITR rectified, then you can claim refund for AY 2022-23. 2. In case of any difficulty contact your Jurisdictional ITO with the documents.
