It depends on circumstances of the each case on wch date they are filing the revise return. Here, am answering in accordance with ur data. Tell me whats the time limit for sending the intimation u/s 143(1) by the department..i,e 1 year from the end of the financial year in which the return is filed..i.e in ur case due date for intimation is 31.3.2006. Of course, within this date assessee will receive intimation u/s 143(1) for the original return filed. Later, he files revise return means once again he receives intimation u/s 143(1) for the revise return. In ur present case, question of from which return we have to calculate time limit for intimation does not arise at all.
