Step-by-Step Guide to Revised Income Tax Return AY 2024-25

If you made a mistake while filing ITR for AY 2024-25 (FY 2023-24), now, there is an option to revise the return. The revised return will take the place of the original return and will be considered as furnished on the date of return that was filed previously. A revised income tax return can be updated before the expiry of the assessment year or at the end of the year, which comes earlier.

Process To Furnish Updated ITR

The process is just similar to the original return filing. Go to the Income Tax Department’s e-filing website and use the secure credential to log in to your account. In Part A of General Information, it is important for the taxpayer to select Revised Return under Section 139(5) mentioned in the drop-down section and further mention the details of the original return to be identified including ‘Date of filing of Original Return’ and Order Acknowledgment Number.

As mentioned by an expert regarding the frequency of revising an ITR form, “Assessees can revise a return every time they discover any omission or wrong statement within the time limit prescribed for filing a revised return. However, one should take utmost care while filing a revised return so as to avoid complications in future and should not misuse the facility.”

  • B S SARMA

    I am a senior citizen having income from pension and bank interest. I have an additional income of Rs1200/-&Rs 3200 for the Ays 2021-22 &2022-23 respectively
    which escaped my attention while filing ITRs by the due dates as no TDS had been done and it was not reflected in 26as or AIS. I understand that I can’t file an updated ITR for the AY 21-22 as the total income including the additional income will be below Rs5,00, 000.Now,I want to file an updated ITR for the AY 22-23. When can I file and what will be my total tax liability? Processing is completed for both Ays. Please advise.

    I have filed my ITR for AY 2022-23 which is processed and I’ve got refund already. Now I’ve
    got sms from ITD stating certain High Value transaction in FY 2021-22. When checked, i found that it is regarding my FD Interest which is got updated in my AIS in the month of December 2022 (which was not mensioned in the AIS when I had filed my original ITR in July 2022). What needs to be done now? Should I respond to this campaign message and do i need to file Revised ITR or Updated ITR? What are the dates for these filings?
    Is there any penalty for this? Plese reply.
