First register your digital signature with IT website, then log out & again log in, then upload.

Your DSC is not registered with the Income Tax website.

Hello everyone,

am new to this forum! Last time I filed my ITR online without any problem, but this time I am facing an issue like - in the macro excel file after providing all the details when I click on the Calculate Tax button it automatically adds a new tax to the column "Total Interest u/s 234a, 234b, 234c" whereas in my Form 16 no such tax is paid or any detail available regarding that. so there is a difference in the amount of tax I paid(available in Form 16) and the macro excel sheet. Now I am worried to attach this excel as the information varies between the two. Your help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Swesh

There is a issue in ITR-4 , Most probably the issue would be resolved in couple of days

Hi Every One,

You all may file all type of ITR's through DSC by downloading fresh excel utility from https://incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in/portal/index.do site . Also please note if any one is getting fakepath error while filing then request you to please create a folder in C DRIVE of your computer with the name "fakepath" & save the xml file in the same folder & upload successfully
