Important ‐ Rectify the defect in your Return of Income

Hell All,

I filed IT for AY23-24  and I have got email stating to rectify the return. The emails states as under: 

Email also states about the probable way to rectify the defect in the ITR . The text of email is below:

The correction of this defect has to be made by filing a corrected return and disclosing the complete receipts, as per Form 26AS. Alternatively, the claim of TDS may be made corresponding to the extent of income/receipts disclosed in the return.Please note that Credit for the TDS is allowable to the person in whose hands the income is assessable and in the year (AY) in which such income is assessable (Rule 37BA). Also note that if the defect is not corrected with-in the time allowed, return will be processed and the credit for TDS will be allowed proportionately.

Respected Sir, how to rectify the ITR. do I need to file the revised return again. do I have to file rectifications for: 1. credit mismatch. if yes it says that there is no credit mismatch.

2. if it is for rectifications. i cannot do so till the I receive order of u/s143.

Could you please suggest what is best possible way to handle and get it resolve.

I am from Goa and total income of my spouse and me is equally apportioned. every time i file the ITR the department also raise this query the past ITR that I have filled, they know the mismatch in the receipt of 26AS and that reported in the income is because I cam governed by the Portuguese civil code in Goa. Income reported in ITR by me is 50% ( half ). combination of my income and that of my wife.

Please reply.

Best wishes,

Antonio
