01 January 2016 Time period of filing the revised return: As per section 139(5), the revised return can be filed before the expiry of one year from the end of the relevant assessment year or before the completion of assessment, whichever is earlier.

For example : Therefore a return of A.Y 2015-16 can be revised till 31st March 2017 or before the completion of the assessment whichever is earlier.

Also note that only return filed u/s 139(1) within due date can be revised. Belated return filed u/s 139(5) can not be revised.

02 January 2016 yes I agree...the status in IT site is showing that ITR processed so once it is processed we can not file revised return..so revised return is possible only when we receive Notice from it dept

02 January 2016 Even if the return status is showing processed it is not completion of assessment. Even intimation u/s 143(1) is not completion of assessment. So if the one year from the end of relevant AY has not expired you can submit revised return provided the original return was submitted within the due date u/s 139(1).
