I've received the same email. My brother has also received the same email. I couldn't find anything related to this online so it is something which has been done for the first time.
I've noticed the acknowledgement no. and the filing date of the ITR they have given was defective and was already revised last year itself. Also my return (revised) is still not processed but my brother's return was processed and refund issued last year.
So I am not sure what reply to give. As the ITR for which they are asking has already been revised. But the option is either that it is correct or it will be revised.
Not sure if it is a software glitch. I m very confused what to do.

Tax payer and some tax consultant file ITR showing incorrect claim like increased amount of 80c deduction, wrong HRA claim, lower salary etc to get refund. computer cross check it from TDS return filed by employer and suspend processing of ITR and it is to be transferred to jurisdictional assessing officer for manual scrutiny in which tax payer has to submit proof of their claim and if found incorrect penalty may be levied.
