Under this section, it is mentioned that exemption under section 13A is subject to the condition that the return u/s 139(1) is filed within due date.
My query is, while filing the return u/s 139(1), showing the taxable income , wont the amount allowed as deduction be shown in the return ? Can you please interpret this.?

The amount allowable as deduction has to be shown in the return. . Subsection (4B) can be better interpreted in the following manner-
1. The return filing is compulsory U/s 139(1) if you want to take the benefit of Section 13A. . 2. The return filing is compulsory U/s 139(1)- when before claiming the Deduction U/s 13A, the Income is taxable. . 3. So, if you file the return U/s 139(1) you are eligible to claim the deduction , otherwise no deduction can be claimed.
