Dear Sir,

What is your query? Correctly tell the same. Section 119(2)(b) of Income Tax Act, as mentioned by you deals with Instructions to subordinate officers.

I had filled my ROI for A.Y. 2009-10 showing NIL income. Recently i found the form 16A showing refund of 8000.00 RS. So u/s 119(2)(b) i can give application to CIT for revising the retrn to claim refund of 8000.00

Dear Sir,

Revised return may be filed only if the mistake is bonafide. Your mistake is bona fide one. As per Section 139(5) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 the revised return can be filed before the expiry of one year from the end of the relevant assessment year or before the completion of assessment year, whichever is earlier. In your case the limitation period is over. In my view you cannot claim the refund,
