Revised E Return, Income Tax

[CHITRA RAGURAM]

A return was filed belatedly and there were few clerical errors in the return uploaded. Hence it was revised twice stating the previous acknowledgement no.

Whether i need to send all the 3 returns i.e original + 2 correction returns to CPC (or) is it enough, if we send the FINAL return alone. Please advice

Only the returns which are filed within due date can be revised in pursuant to Section 139(5).

Hence any return revised pursuant to return filing u/s 139(4) will be null and void.

But the system accepts the revisions with previous acknowledgement number reference.

Acceptance of revised return by the system in this case does not validated the return. As per IT Act, a revised return filed in pursuance of belatedly filed return is null and void
