My wife has filed IT returns in time based on the Form 16 received from employer. It was noticed that the tax received as per 26AS was less than shown in Form16. 

Now employee has informed that it was a mistake in Form 16 and may issue revised Form 16.

Now if revised ITR is filed does she need to pay Rs 5,000 to IT for no mistake of hers?

Appreciate the work you are doing for non-finance background people (like me). I have a question related to income tax if you could help resolve it. I filed IT return before 31st Dec and observed the Form 16 provided by the employer is incomplete. Basically, our organisation went through a legal entity change last year, so ideally we should have got two Form 16s: One for the previous entity and another for the new entity. During filing the return, only new Form 16 was considered by mistake and I have a previous entity Form 16 in hand now but after filing the returns how do I correct my IT returns? Again, thank you in advance for all help.

I have filed my ITR-1 for AY 21-22 in time. Demand was raised on 14 Jan for Rs 1,690 on processing of my ITR. a) I have paid the amount on 27 May, 2022 through net banking against challan no 10574. BSR code 0510308. I have erroneously paid Rs 1,690 in serial 300 (self-assessment) instead of SL 400. The amount remains to be shown outstanding in mine account and acceptance of return remains pending. I have tried to correct the SL 400 through my PAN account but I have not been successful in changing serial. In rectification icon this amount of Rs 1690 is not shown because only payments prior to submission of ITR are only shown. However, this Rs 1,690 is shown in it is shown in 26As. So I have not been able to change to SL 400 instead of SL 300. b) I requested for reprocess of ITR so that this amount may get reflected and ITR will be accepted. After reprocessing request amount has been reduced to Rs 1,230. But ITR has not been accepted. It is showing with additional interest of Rs 108 as on today. c) Additionally Rs.1690 + Rs 112 has been deducted from refund of next year return on 14 September 22. This is also reflected in 26AS d) Therefore I have paid Rs1690 through net banking challan plus Rs 1,690 through deduction from refund plus Rs 112 as interest. Total payment made 1,690+1,690+112 = Rs 3,492. Whereas I am required to pay only Rs 1,230. e) ITR still outstanding and not accepted till date and amount of Rs 1,230 is reflected unpaid. Sir my query is: a) Am I required to pay amount Rs 1,230 + interest? After the re- processing, despite having paid Rs 1,690 against initial demand by net banking plus there has been deduction from refunds. i.e. twice if I ask for re-processing? b) Now that amount has been paid. What action I need to take to complete the processing of ITR.

Sir, I am a govt servant. My actual received salary is less than reflected in Form 16 due to recoveries. I received about Rupees three lakh as HRA erroneously same has been recovered in month of Mar mostly and part in Jun My TDS is dedcuted on entire Rupees three lakh and recovery amount is not reduced from gross salary even for recovery in Mar 23 as Form 16 is made in Feb itself. I filed ITR with actual after reducing these erronously paid amount. I got notice for defective ITR and quoted to follow rule 37BA. Shall I agree with the notice or what is the way to correct the ITR. Regards

Sir, NRI daughter had LTCG income in FY23-24 and IT returns was filed in ITR-2 as per rules. In FY24-25 there is no taxable income and there is no LTCG also. In such a case, filing may not be required but she would like to file just to recover the small but atrocious deductions made in the SB account.. My query is which ITR form is to be used in this case? In case if ITR-2 is not required, is there anything wrong in using ITR-2 itself?
