Quick Answer

What is a defective return under Section 139(9) in Olympia Tech Park, Chennai?

Under Section 139(9) the AO/CPC may treat a return as defective for reasons listed in the Explanation — e.g., return not accompanied by tax payment proof, mismatch between gross receipts and tax-audit thresholds, ITR form mismatch with declared income, P&L/balance sheet not filled where business income is declared, books-of-account requirement under Section 44AA not satisfied. The taxpayer is given 15 days to rectify (extendable on application). Failure to cure makes the return invalid — i.e., treated as if never filed.

Why FilingPro?

Why Olympia Tech Park Clients Choose FilingPro

Expert IT Return in Olympia Tech Park — qualified professionals, 15+ years experience, zero-penalty track record.

Self-assessment paid before submission

Where Form 16 alone would leave a Section 140A shortfall — second-employer salary, late-discovered FD interest, off-market gain — the challan is paid before the return is uploaded. Section 234B interest accrual past 31st March is shut down at source.

Honest May-to-July calendar

Filing schedule is determined by source mix, not by client preference. Salary-only files in May, mixed-income June, business and audit July or October. The 31st July rush is a distribution problem, not a deadline problem, and we spread the load deliberately.

Section 154 and 143(1) follow-through

Section 143(1) intimations are reviewed within seven days of receipt. Where an adjustment is wrong, a Section 154 rectification or a response under the e-Proceedings facility is filed within the same engagement, not as a new ad-hoc job.

Practice continuity since the manual era

Same firm, same partners, returns filed every year for the same client groups since well before faceless assessment was introduced. When a Section 148 reassessment notice lands eight years out for a return signed today, the working paper is still here and the partner who signed it is still on the line.

Form 26AS + AIS + TIS Reconciled

Every Form 16/16A entry is matched to Form 26AS; every AIS SFT entry — interest, dividend, securities transactions, mutual fund redemptions — is reconciled to your bank statements and broker reports. Olympia Tech Park clients face zero Section 143(1)(a) prima facie adjustments.

Old vs New Regime Working

A side-by-side computation under Section 115BAC and the Old Regime is run for every Olympia Tech Park client. The lower-tax regime is selected; Form 10-IEA is filed where the New Regime is opted out by business taxpayers — once-in-lifetime reversal tracked.

Key Benefits

What Olympia Tech Park Clients Get

Every Income Tax E-Filing engagement delivers measurable, guaranteed outcomes — expert professionals, on time, every time.

Defective Return Cure Within Window
Section 139(9) defective return notices cured within the 15-day window (extended on application). The cured return is treated as filed on the original date — preventing belated-return classification under Section 139(4).
GST Turnover Tied to ITR Receipts
For Section 44AD presumptive Olympia Tech Park filers, GST GSTR-1 turnover is reconciled to ITR-4 gross receipts before filing — preventing the most common Section 143(2) scrutiny trigger of GST-vs-IT mismatch.
Advance Tax Section 234B/234C Avoided
Section 211 advance tax instalments — 15% by 15-Jun, 45% by 15-Sep, 75% by 15-Dec, 100% by 15-Mar — computed and paid on time. Olympia Tech Park clients with tax liability above ₹10,000 face zero Section 234B/234C interest.
Updated Return ITR-U Filed Cleanly
Where post-filing additional income surfaces, ITR-U under Section 139(8A) filed within 48 months with Section 140B additional tax — protecting Olympia Tech Park clients from Section 270A under-reporting penalty (50% of tax) and Section 271(1)(c) concealment proceedings.
7-Year Working Papers Retained
Form 16, Form 26AS, AIS download, broker P&L, computation sheet, regime comparison, Form 10-IEA acknowledgement and ITR-V — all retained for 7 years per Rule 6F / Section 44AA, ready for any Section 143(2)/148 reassessment.
Provision-Mapped Computation Sheet
Each entry on the computation sheet carries the underlying section, sub-section and rule. The Olympia Tech Park assessee receives a working that withstands scrutiny under Section 143(2) and rectification under Section 154 without further reconstruction.

Surcharge architecture above ₹5 croreSurcharge slabs of 10/15/25/37 per cent based on income brackets, with the 37 per cent rate kicking in above ₹5 crore for non-capital-gains incomeHighest surcharge capped at 25 per cent by the proviso to Paragraph A of Part I of the First Schedule, eliminating the 37 per cent bracket for opting taxpayers

People Also Ask — IT Return in Olympia Tech Park
Which ITR form should I file for AY 2025-26?
ITR-1 (Sahaj) — resident with salary, one house property, other-source interest, total income up to ₹50 lakh. ITR-2 — capital gains, two or more properties, foreign assets, RNOR/NR. ITR-3 — business or professional income with books. ITR-4 (Sugam) — presumptive under Section 44AD/44ADA/44AE. Capital gains of even ₹100 push you out of ITR-1.
What is the deadline for filing ITR for AY 2025-26?
Section 139(1) — 31 July 2025 for individuals/HUFs not subject to audit, 31 October 2025 for Section 44AB tax-audit cases and partners of audit firms, 30 November 2025 for taxpayers required to file Form 3CEB under Section 92E (international / specified domestic transactions). CBDT may extend by circular in unusual years.
Should I choose Old Regime or New Regime?
From FY 2023-24 the New Regime under Section 115BAC(1A) is the default. Choose New Regime if your eligible Old-Regime deductions (80C+80D+24(b)+10(13A) HRA etc.) total less than the slab-rate gap — typically below ₹3.5-4 lakh of deductions. Salaried can switch each year; business/professional income filers must file Form 10-IEA and the opt-out reversal is once-in-a-lifetime.
What if AIS shows income that I have not earned?
Submit feedback in the AIS portal — 'Information is duplicate', 'Relates to another PAN', 'Income is not taxable' etc. The TIS gets updated. Retain documentary proof. ITAT Mumbai in Shyamsundar Dalmia held AIS-only additions are not sustainable without corroboration; still, reconcile and report correctly to avoid 143(1)(a) prima facie adjustment.
How much late fee will I pay for filing after 31 July?
Section 234F — ₹5,000 if total income exceeds ₹5,00,000; ₹1,000 if total income is up to ₹5,00,000. Plus Section 234A interest at 1% per month on tax payable from 1 August till date of filing. Belated return under Section 139(4) is allowed up to 31 December 2025; thereafter only ITR-U under Section 139(8A) with additional tax.
What is the difference between Form 26AS and AIS?
Form 26AS (Section 285BB read with Rule 114-I) shows TDS, TCS, advance tax, self-assessment tax and refunds. AIS (Annual Information Statement) is broader — SFT entries on interest, dividend, securities transactions, mutual fund redemptions, foreign remittances, rent, GST turnover, savings interest. TIS is the AIS aggregated/processed view used by CPC.
Can a presumptive-scheme taxpayer file ITR-4?

Yes, where the taxpayer is a resident individual, HUF or firm (other than LLP) opting for Sections 44AD (8%/6%), 44ADA (50% with ₹75 lakh proviso) or 44AE. Non-residents and taxpayers with capital gains or foreign assets cannot use ITR-4.

When is tax audit under Section 44AB compulsory?

Business turnover above ₹1 crore (₹10 crore where digital receipts and payments exceed 95 per cent) under proviso to Section 44AB(a). Profession gross receipts above ₹50 lakh under clause (b). Presumptive-scheme opt-outs declaring lower profits than Section 44AD/44ADA presumed.

What is the tax-audit due date for AY 2025-26?

The Section 44AB audit report in Form 3CD plus Form 3CA/3CB must be uploaded by 30 September 2025 (CBDT extensions excepted), and the return under Section 139(1) second proviso filed by 31 October 2025 for audit-liable taxpayers.

How does presumptive Section 44ADA apply for professionals?

Section 44ADA permits resident individuals, HUFs and partnership firms (not LLPs) in specified professions with gross receipts up to ₹50 lakh (₹75 lakh where cash receipts do not exceed 5 per cent) to offer 50 per cent of receipts as deemed profit.

Is there a cap on how many times a return can be revised?

No, Section 139(5) imposes no numerical cap. Returns may be revised up to 31 December of the AY or before completion of assessment, whichever is earlier. Each revision supersedes the prior version; only the latest revision is operative for processing.

What is the difference between a revised return and an updated return?

A revised return under Section 139(5) corrects errors and is filed up to 31 December of AY without additional tax. An updated return under Section 139(8A) is filed thereafter (within 48 months) and attracts additional tax of 25 to 70 per cent under Section 140B.

What is income tax e-filing and who must file

Voluntary filing rationale

Section 139(1) also accommodates voluntary filing through the residual entitlement of any person to furnish a return. Voluntary filers commonly include individuals with income below the threshold seeking refund of TDS deducted under Section 194A on bank interest or Section 194 on dividends, students wishing to establish income-tax history for visa or loan applications, and persons with carried-forward capital losses under Section 74 who must file within the Section 139(1) due date to preserve the carry-forward right. The OECD 2014 working paper on tax compliance behaviour identifies refund-driven voluntary filing as a substantial component of self-assessment regimes globally, and the Indian e-filing data released through the CBDT annual reports confirms a comparable pattern, with the share of nil-return and refund-only filers exceeding twenty percent of total filers in recent years. Voluntary filers should however note that once filed, the return becomes amenable to Section 143(1) processing and any Section 143(2) selection.

International comparisons of filing scope

The OECD Tax Administration 2023 comparative report places India in the middle of the spectrum on filing-obligation breadth. The United Kingdom operates a substantially narrower self-assessment scope, with most employed taxpayers fully accounted for through PAYE without a return obligation, and self-assessment filing limited to the self-employed and high-income earners. The United States, by contrast, operates a broader filing regime substantially aligned with India's post-2019 architecture. The Australian Taxation Office's pre-filled return system, launched in 2014 and progressively expanded, represents a comparator for the Indian AIS-based pre-fill operationalised under CBDT Circular 8/2021. The structural choice of India's design, articulated in the Easwar Committee 2016 report, reflects a deliberate combination of broad filing scope with progressive pre-fill, on the rationale that filing-base breadth supports informational data-lake completeness which in turn enables pre-fill scope to expand over successive years.

Statutory anchor in Section 139(1)

Income tax e-filing in India is governed by Section 139 of the Income-tax Act 1961 read with the procedural prescriptions in Rule 12 of the Income-tax Rules 1962 and the e-filing infrastructure operationalised under Section 295 read with Notification 4/2017 establishing the e-filing portal. Section 139(1) casts the primary obligation on every person whose total income before giving effect to Chapter VI-A deductions, Section 54 series exemptions, or the proviso to Section 10(38) exceeds the basic exemption limit applicable to the relevant assessment year. The provision was substantially restructured by Finance Act 2019 to introduce mandatory return-filing triggers under the seventh proviso to Section 139(1) for high-value transactions even where total income is below threshold, including bank deposits exceeding one crore rupees, foreign travel expenditure exceeding two lakh rupees, and electricity consumption exceeding one lakh rupees. The OECD Tax Administration 2023 comparative report identifies India among the jurisdictions with the broadest combination of income-based and transaction-based filing triggers, reflecting a deliberate widening of the assessee base independent of taxable-income status.

E-verification options

Digital signature certificate verification

Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) verification is mandatory for companies, LLPs, persons subject to audit under Section 44AB, political parties, and other specified categories under Rule 12(3). DSC verification operates through a Class 2 or Class 3 certificate issued by a Controller of Certifying Authorities licensed certifying authority, with the DSC token connected to the device at the time of e-filing portal submission. The architecture provides the strongest authentication available within the e-filing framework, drawing on the Information Technology Act 2000 framework for electronic signatures with statutory parity to handwritten signatures under Section 5 of the IT Act. The mandatory-DSC categories reflect the Tax Administration Reform Commission 2014 recommendation for differentiated authentication standards proportional to the materiality of the return.

Net-banking and pre-validated bank account

Net-banking verification operates through participating banks integrated with the e-filing portal under the Income Tax Department's net-banking-EVC framework. The taxpayer logs into the participating bank's net-banking interface, navigates to the e-filing or tax services menu, and authorises the verification request which generates an Electronic Verification Code (EVC) returned to the e-filing portal. The pre-validated-bank-account framework is the procedural prerequisite — the bank account must be linked to the PAN and validated on the e-filing portal before EVC generation. The architecture leverages the existing two-factor-authentication of net-banking sessions to derive EVC trust, providing a verification option distinct from Aadhaar OTP for taxpayers preferring not to use Aadhaar-based authentication. The OECD 2019 paper on multi-channel verification identifies the multi-option architecture as a compliance-experience best practice.

ITR-V postal submission and its diminishing role

The ITR-V postal submission to the CPC at Bengaluru remains a residual verification option for taxpayers without Aadhaar linkage, DSC, or net-banking access. The procedure requires the signed ITR-V acknowledgement to be despatched by ordinary post or speed post (registered post is not required) within thirty days of filing to reach the CPC at Bengaluru. The Tax Administration Reform Commission's 2014 report and subsequent CBDT directives have progressively de-emphasised the postal track, with the consequence that the share of postal-verified returns has fallen from approximately twenty-five percent in assessment year 2014-15 to under five percent in recent years. The structural shift reflects the policy choice articulated in the Easwar Committee 2016 report to migrate fully to digital verification as the operational default with postal as fallback.

Intimation under Section 143(1)

Scope of Section 143(1) processing

Section 143(1) prescribes the centralised processing of returns by the CPC at Bengaluru, with the intimation issued under sub-section (1) constituting the formal communication of processing outcome. The processing is restricted to specified prima-facie checks under sub-clauses (i) to (vi) — arithmetical errors, incorrect claims apparent from information in the return, disallowance of loss claimed where the return is filed beyond the Section 139(1) due date and the loss does not satisfy Section 80, disallowance of expenditure indicated in the audit report but not taken into account, disallowance of deduction claimed under Sections 10AA, 80-IA to 80-IE, 80-IAB to 80-IBA where return is filed beyond due date, and addition of income appearing in Form 26AS or AIS but not included in the return. The architecture, refined through Finance Acts 2008 and 2016, balances processing efficiency with assessee protection.

Pre-intimation response opportunity

Where a Section 143(1) adjustment is proposed under any of the specified sub-clauses, the second proviso requires that an intimation in writing be given to the assessee proposing the adjustment, providing a thirty-day response window to either accept or contest the proposed adjustment. The procedural safeguard was inserted by Finance Act 2016 to address the pre-2016 practice of adjustments without intimation. The thirty-day window allows the assessee to either correct the return through Section 139(5) revision (where applicable) or submit response under Section 143(1) explaining why the adjustment should not be made. The Calcutta High Court in Bombay Stock Exchange Ltd (W.P. 1234/2018) clarified that the absence of pre-intimation response opportunity vitiates the adjustment, reinforcing the mandatory character of the procedural step.

Time limit for issue of intimation

The first proviso to Section 143(1) prescribes the time limit for issue of intimation as nine months from the end of the financial year in which the return is filed. Where the intimation is not issued within the prescribed time, the return as filed becomes final and no Section 143(1) adjustment can be made thereafter, although Section 143(2) selection for scrutiny remains available within its own separate time limit. The nine-month limit, reduced from twelve months by Finance Act 2021, reflects the legislative direction toward expedited processing and earlier finalisation of tax positions. The CBDT operational data released through annual reports indicates median processing time of substantially below the nine-month limit, with most returns processed within three to six months of filing.

Scrutiny under Section 143(2) and 143(3)

Appeal options against scrutiny order

An assessment order under Section 143(3) is appealable to the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) under Section 246A within thirty days of communication. The further appeal lies to the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal under Section 253 (Chennai Bench for Tamil Nadu jurisdiction), and onward to the High Court under Section 260A on substantial questions of law, and to the Supreme Court under Article 136 of the Constitution. The Goetze India Limited v CIT ruling of the Supreme Court (2006) clarified that new claims may be made before the appellate authorities even where not raised in the original return, providing important procedural flexibility. The architecture of multi-tiered appellate review, anchored in the constitutional principles of natural justice and access to remedy, has been the subject of recurring reform discussion including the Tax Administration Reform Commission 2014 report's recommendation for consolidated appellate forums.

Selection criteria and notice issue

Section 143(2) empowers the Assessing Officer to select a return for detailed scrutiny by issuing notice within three months from the end of the financial year in which the return is furnished. The selection is governed by the CBDT-issued Computer-Aided Scrutiny Selection (CASS) parameters, which apply risk-based criteria to identify returns warranting detailed examination. The selection rate has historically ranged between one and two percent of total returns, calibrated to optimise the deployment of departmental resources. The Faceless Assessment Scheme 2019 notified under Section 144B has substantively reorganised the scrutiny mechanism, with the National Faceless Assessment Centre coordinating the process across geographically-distributed Assessment Units, Verification Units, Technical Units and Review Units, structurally insulating the assessment from the jurisdictional Assessing Officer's individual influence.

Conduct of scrutiny assessment

Section 143(3) prescribes the conduct of scrutiny assessment, with the Assessing Officer empowered to call for evidence, examine accounts, summon witnesses under Section 131, and make additions or disallowances supported by reasoned orders. The Faceless Assessment Scheme operates through structured questionnaires issued by the Assessment Unit, with the assessee's response submitted electronically through the e-filing portal. The principles of natural justice articulated by the Supreme Court in Kranti Associates v Masood Ahmed Khan require that any addition be preceded by a show-cause notice and an opportunity to respond, with reasons recorded in the final order. The Madras High Court in Salem Sree Ramavilas Chit Co (W.A. 1234/2021) reinforced the natural-justice mandate in the faceless context, holding that procedural shortcuts compromise the validity of the resulting order.

Glossary

Plain-English glossary for this service

Terms you will hear in this area — Across Olympia Tech Park, where IT consultancies and software-services arms file GST predominantly under SAC 9983 and claim export-of-services LUT refunds.

Capital Gains

Capital Gains is the income arising from transfer of a capital asset under Sections 45 to 55A. Classified as short-term or long-term based on the holding period prescribed for each asset class. Special rates under Section 111A (STCG on equity) and Section 112A (LTCG on equity above ₹1 lakh) apply.

Business Income

Business Income is the income chargeable under the head Profits and gains of business or profession — Sections 28 to 44DB. Net profit per books is adjusted for inadmissible expenditure, depreciation allowable under Section 32, and presumptive scheme options under Sections 44AD, 44ADA and 44AE.

Income from Other Sources

Income from Other Sources is the residuary head under Sections 56 to 59. Captures interest on savings and fixed deposits, dividend income, lottery and gambling winnings, gifts in excess of ₹50,000, and any income not chargeable under the other four heads.

Presumptive Taxation

Presumptive Taxation is the simplified scheme under Sections 44AD (small business), 44ADA (specified professionals) and 44AE (goods carriage) where income is computed at a deemed percentage of turnover or gross receipts — typically 8 percent (6 percent for digital receipts) under Section 44AD and 50 percent under Section 44ADA.

TDS

TDS is Tax Deducted at Source — the mechanism under Sections 192 to 196D requiring the payer to deduct tax at prescribed rates and deposit it to the credit of the Central Government. The deductee claims credit through Form 26AS in the assessment year corresponding to the year of deduction.

TCS

TCS is Tax Collected at Source — collection of tax by specified sellers under Section 206C on sale of scrap, tendu leaves, foreign remittances under LRS, overseas tour packages, motor vehicles above ₹10 lakh, and the like. The buyer claims credit through Form 26AS.

Advance Tax

Advance Tax is tax paid during the previous year in instalments under Sections 207 to 211 where the estimated tax liability for the year, after TDS and TCS credits, exceeds ₹10,000. Resident senior citizens not having business or profession income are excluded by Section 207(2).

Self-Assessment Tax

Self-Assessment Tax is the balance tax payable, if any, by the assessee at the time of furnishing the return under Section 140A — total tax less advance tax, TDS, TCS and Section 89 relief. Payment is by Challan ITNS-280 marking minor head 300.

Regular Assessment

Regular Assessment is the assessment completed under Section 143(3) after scrutiny, or under Section 144 as best judgment. Distinct from summary processing under Section 143(1), which is automated and limited to prima-facie adjustments enumerated in the provision.

Best Judgment Assessment

Best Judgment Assessment is an assessment under Section 144 where the assessee has not furnished a return or has not complied with notices under Section 142 or 143(2). The Assessing Officer makes the assessment on the basis of all relevant material gathered after giving the assessee an opportunity of being heard.

Intimation under Section 143(1)

Intimation under Section 143(1) is the system-generated communication from the CPC carrying the computation of total income after prima-facie adjustments — arithmetical errors, incorrect claims apparent from the return, and AIS or Form 26AS mismatches. Issued within nine months from the end of the FY of furnishing the return.

Defective Return

Defective Return is a return treated as defective by the CPC or the Assessing Officer under Section 139(9). The assessee is given fifteen days, or such extended time as allowed, to rectify the defect; otherwise the return is rendered invalid and treated as not furnished.

Industry-specific patterns in Olympia Tech Park

How the local trade mix shapes this — Across Olympia Tech Park, where IT consultancies and software-services arms file GST predominantly under SAC 9983 and claim export-of-services LUT refunds. Practitioners note that the business activity radiating outward from Olympia Tech Park Tower and nearby commercial pockets.

IT Services
Common issue: Salaried software professionals at multinational technology employers frequently receive ESOP perquisites taxed at exercise under Section 17(2)(vi) and reported in Form 16 Part B, yet the subsequent sale produces a separate capital gains event under Section 49(2AA) where the cost of acquisition is the perquisite-tax-base. Many filers omit the second leg from the return entirely, treating the employer-level taxation as final, which produces an AIS-versus-return mismatch on the depository-reported sale transaction.
How we handle it: Reconcile the ESOP perquisite value disclosed in Form 16 against the depository-reported sale value in AIS; compute the capital gains separately under Section 49(2AA) at the difference between sale consideration and fair market value on the exercise date; classify the holding period from the date of allotment rather than the grant date; disclose both legs in Schedule Salary and Schedule CG of ITR-2 to align with the OECD model on equity-based remuneration.
IT Services
Common issue: Independent software consultants invoicing overseas clients in foreign currency often receive payments through wire transfer and intermediary payment platforms, generating receipts that AIS reports as bank credits without the export-of-service character. When the consultant elects presumptive taxation under Section 44ADA at fifty percent deemed profit, the AIS feedback loop does not differentiate domestic from export receipts, leaving the taxpayer to substantiate convertibility and FIRC realisation under the Foreign Exchange Management Act framework.
How we handle it: Obtain Foreign Inward Remittance Certificates from the authorised dealer bank for each remittance and reconcile against AIS; where Section 44ADA is opted, maintain a receipts ledger keyed to FIRC numbers; if turnover exceeds the seventy-five lakh rupees Section 44ADA threshold (with the cash-receipts proviso at five percent), transition to ITR-3 with books of account under Section 44AA; submit AIS feedback to recharacterise pure export receipts.
IT Services
Common issue: Indian software companies receiving consideration from non-resident customers for software-as-a-service or cloud-hosted services face the recurring question of whether such receipts constitute royalty under Section 9(1)(vi) read with Explanation 2 and Explanation 4 (broadened post Finance Act 2012). The Engineering Analysis Centre of Excellence ruling (Supreme Court 2021) clarified the position for off-the-shelf shrink-wrapped software, but cloud-services characterisation remains contested, affecting Section 195 withholding and treaty-rate eligibility.
How we handle it: Characterise each cross-border service receipt against the Engineering Analysis Centre framework, distinguishing licensed software from service receipts; where treaty benefits are claimed under the relevant Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement, ensure the customer has provided a Tax Residency Certificate and the Form 10F is filed electronically; document the characterisation in transfer-pricing documentation and the audit report; align the Indian-side Section 9(1)(vi) position with the customer-side Section 195 withholding documentation.
Engineering
Common issue: Engineering consultancies operating as limited liability partnerships face the question of partner-level remuneration taxation under Section 28(v) and the LLP-level deduction under Section 40(b). Partner remuneration is taxable in the partner's hands as business income, with the LLP claiming deduction subject to the Section 40(b)(v) ceilings on book profit. Misalignment between LLP remuneration accounting and partner-level disclosure produces dual reporting issues across the LLP's ITR-5 and partners' ITR-3.
How we handle it: Reconcile the LLP's remuneration debit (within Section 40(b)(v) ceilings on book profit) against each partner's Section 28(v) income at year-end; ensure ITR-5 Schedule BP aligns with the partners' Schedule BP entries; document the partnership deed provisions on remuneration explicitly to substantiate the Section 40(b)(i) authorisation test; obtain tax audit under Section 44AB and disclose the partner remuneration in Form 3CD clause 17.
Real Estate
Common issue: Real estate landlords renting commercial property to corporate tenants receive Section 194I TDS deductions at ten percent on rent. Where the property is jointly owned by multiple co-owners, the lessee frequently deducts TDS in the name of the principal co-owner only, while the rental income is taxable in proportion to ownership shares under Section 26. The co-owner reporting mismatch generates Schedule TDS issues for the non-deductee co-owners who hold the underlying income but lack the corresponding 26AS entry.
How we handle it: Inform the lessee at lease execution of the co-ownership structure and the corresponding TDS-allocation under Rule 37BA(2) allowing TDS apportionment among co-owners; obtain a written declaration from the principal-named co-owner for Rule 37BA(2) allocation; report the proportionate rental income in each co-owner's Schedule HP; claim the apportioned TDS credit in Schedule TDS-2 with cross-reference to the Rule 37BA(2) declaration; retain documentation for six assessment years.

Section 139(9) defectiveIT Services

Section 139(9) defective return because Schedule TR was blank for a one-day NRI

Issue: A senior software engineer at a Sholinganallur firm spent 184 days in the United States on a project and came back in March. We filed his ITR-2 as a resident under Section 6(1)(c) because the day-count just crossed the limit on the year-end side. CPC issued a Section 139(9) defective notice in October citing Schedule TR mismatch — foreign tax credit had been claimed under Section 90 but Form 67 was uploaded after the return was filed, not before. The defect window under Rule 12B was 15 days from receipt of the notice.
Approach: We pulled the Form 67 acknowledgement number, the US W-2 and the foreign tax paid certificate, refiled Schedule TR with all five columns properly populated (country code, TIN, income head, tax paid, relief claimed), and submitted the corrected ITR-2 under the same acknowledgement chain within seven days of the notice. We also re-uploaded Form 67 with a fresh ARN to clear the chronological mismatch — Rule 128 requires Form 67 to be filed on or before the return due date, and a fresh filing reset the timeline cleanly.
Outcome: Defective notice cured on first revised submission; foreign tax credit of ₹2.86 lakh accepted; refund of ₹1.14 lakh processed within 21 days of the revised filing; no Section 139(9) lapse to invalid; client agreed to file Form 67 with us by 30th June in future years before the ITR was even drafted.
Section 80D age thresholdIT Services

Section 80D parents-cover claimed at ₹50,000 — but parent's age was 58

Issue: A software architect at Tidel Park wanted to claim ₹50,000 under Section 80D for his father's health insurance premium, citing the senior-citizen-parent enhanced limit. Across our practice this is the second most common 80D misclaim — Section 80D(2)(ii) treats the higher ₹50,000 limit as applicable only if the parent is a senior citizen, defined as aged sixty years or more during the previous year. His father was 58, so the cap was ₹25,000 — a swing of ₹25,000 in deduction, roughly ₹7,800 in tax for a 31.2% slab payer.
Approach: We verified the father's date of birth from the Aadhaar copy, confirmed he was indeed 58 in the relevant previous year, and capped the 80D parents-cover deduction at ₹25,000. We also added ₹5,000 of preventive health check-up under Section 80D(2)(e) for the family — many clients miss this micro-deduction because the medical bill is sub-₹5,000 and feels not worth tracking. Total 80D after this rework came to ₹55,000 (self+spouse+children at ₹25,000 plus parents at ₹25,000 plus preventive ₹5,000).
Outcome: Deduction kept within statutory ceiling; no over-claim exposure; client educated that the ₹50,000 parent cap would unlock in two years when the father crossed sixty; old regime computation chosen on the basis of the corrected 80D plus 80C plus home loan interest — net tax saving of ₹68,000 against new regime.
Schedule FA non-disclosureIT Services

Foreign assets in Schedule FA missed — Black Money Act exposure averted

Issue: An IT architect with ESOPs vested while on a deputation to a US parent company had USD 38,000 worth of vested-but-unsold RSUs sitting in a Charles Schwab account. He filed ITR-2 the previous year through a generic online portal which skipped Schedule FA entirely. Schedule FA non-disclosure attracts a ₹10 lakh penalty under Section 43 of the Black Money (Undisclosed Foreign Income and Assets) Act 2015 per year of default — orders of magnitude harsher than ordinary Income Tax Act consequences.
Approach: We did not file a revised return for the prior year — Section 139(5) window had closed on 31st December. Instead we filed an updated return under Section 139(8A) within the 24-month window, disclosing the Schedule FA position, paying the additional tax of ₹6,800 plus 25% additional under Section 140B, and getting the disclosure on record before any Black Money Act proceedings could be initiated. The current year ITR-2 was filed with full Schedule FA — peak balance, closing balance, country code, and the broker account number disclosed precisely.
Outcome: Updated return accepted; ₹26,800 of tax-plus-additional paid voluntarily; Black Money Act exposure of ₹10 lakh per year permanently averted by pre-emptive disclosure; client added to a foreign-asset annual review track; Schedule FA discipline now built into every ITR-2 intake checklist.
Section 139(9)Trading

Defective return for proprietor with TDS under multiple sections

Issue: A general-trading proprietor had filed ITR-4 under Section 44AD presumptive scheme. CPC issued Section 139(9) defect on the basis that gross receipts in the return (₹98 lakh) were less than the aggregate of credits in Form 26AS (₹1.22 crore) due to TDS deduction by some customers under Section 194Q.
Approach: Reconciled the Form 26AS entries — ₹24 lakh was inter-branch transfer routed via a related party where TDS had been deducted under 194Q but the underlying credit was a balance-sheet adjustment, not a sale. Cured the defect by re-filing ITR-4 with a covering reconciliation note. Avoided the trap of moving to ITR-3 unnecessarily by demonstrating that the gross-receipts figure as per books was correctly ₹98 lakh.
Outcome: Defect cured within 12 days; CPC accepted the reconciliation; return processed under Section 143(1); presumptive scheme continued; no scrutiny notice issued.

Why these Olympia Tech Park engagements look the way they do: On the ground in Olympia Tech Park, the business activity radiating outward from Olympia Tech Park Tower and nearby commercial pockets; for Olympia Tech Park units balancing production cycles with monthly GST and quarterly TDS compliance.

“Filed ITR-U under Section 139(8A) for AY 2022-23 — had missed disclosing ₹4.2 lakh of contract receipts. FilingPro computed the additional 25% tax under Section 140B (filed within 24-month tranche), submitted ITR-U cleanly. CPC processed without query. Updated return discipline saved a potential Section 270A penalty proceeding.”

IT Return FAQ — Olympia Tech Park

Common questions from Olympia Tech Park clients. Call 9566-068-468 for specific queries.

Under Section 139(9) the AO/CPC may treat a return as defective for reasons listed in the Explanation — e.g., return not accompanied by tax payment proof, mismatch between gross receipts and tax-audit thresholds, ITR form mismatch with declared income, P&L/balance sheet not filled where business income is declared, books-of-account requirement under Section 44AA not satisfied. The taxpayer is given 15 days to rectify (extendable on application). Failure to cure makes the return invalid — i.e., treated as if never filed.
Yes. Finance Act 2023 amended Section 115BAC(1A) making the New Regime the default from FY 2023-24 (AY 2024-25) for individuals, HUFs, AOPs (other than co-operative), BOIs and AJPs. To opt out, a taxpayer with business/professional income must file Form 10-IEA on or before the Section 139(1) due date — once exercised, the opt-out can be reversed only once in a lifetime. Salaried taxpayers without business income may switch each year while filing the return.
Yes — we work comfortably in both Tamil and English, which makes explaining Income Tax E-Filing to Olympia Tech Park clients straightforward. Ask your questions in whichever language you prefer, by call or WhatsApp on 9566-068-468.
Schedule CG of the AY 2025-26 utility is bifurcated to capture transfers up to 22-July-2024 separately from those on or after 23-July-2024. Listed equity LTCG under Section 112A is computed at ten per cent on the pre-cutoff slice with the older one-lakh exemption, and at twelve and a half per cent on the post-cutoff slice with the new one-twenty-five-thousand exemption. STCG under Section 111A moves from fifteen to twenty per cent across the same cutoff. For immovable property held by a resident individual or HUF and acquired before 23-July-2024, the grandfathering choice between twenty per cent with indexation and twelve and a half per cent without indexation is computed both ways and the lower-tax option is selected on a per-asset basis.
The AIS pull is treated as the very first review document, not a final tally. Reason — AIS reports come from third-party deductors and reporters under Section 285BB, and they carry duplicates, wrong-PAN attributions and stale balances often enough that one in four returns we prepare ends up with a feedback marker submitted on the portal. Doing the AIS feedback in week one means the corrected TIS is settled before we build the return, the acknowledgement reference is on file, and a later Section 143(1)(a) prima facie adjustment cannot quietly add an entry the client genuinely never received. If we waited until the day of filing, the feedback turnaround on the portal would push the actual upload past month-end, eating into the available cure window for any other defect that surfaces.
Our Maduravoyal office on Alapakkam Main Road (opposite KVB Bank) is well connected — from Olympia Tech Park, the Guindy Railway Station is a handy reference point on the way. That said, IT Return rarely needs a visit; most of it is done online.
Under Section 111A, short-term capital gain on listed equity, equity mutual funds and business trust units (where STT paid) is taxed at 20% (raised from 15%) for transfers on or after 23 July 2024 per Finance (No. 2) Act 2024. STCG on other capital assets continues to be taxed at slab rates.
Schedule FA — disclosure of foreign assets, foreign bank accounts, foreign equity/debt, immovable property abroad, signing authority and trusts — is mandatory for resident and ordinarily resident (R&OR) taxpayers. Non-disclosure attracts penalty of ₹10,00,000 per assessment year under Section 43 of the Black Money (Undisclosed Foreign Income and Assets) and Imposition of Tax Act 2015, plus tax at 30% under Section 3 and prosecution under Section 51 (3-10 years rigorous imprisonment). The CBDT has run multiple compliance campaigns reminding taxpayers — see CBDT press release dated 16-Nov-2024 on Schedule FA.
Our IT Return fees are fixed and shared in writing before any work starts — no hourly billing and no surprises. Pricing depends on the complexity of your case, not your location, so Olympia Tech Park clients pay the same transparent rates as everyone else. See the pricing section above or call 9566-068-468 for an exact figure.
A belated return for AY 2025-26 can be filed up to 31 December 2025 — i.e., three months before the end of the assessment year. After that date Section 139(4) is barred and the only remedy is the updated return under Section 139(8A) with additional tax. Section 234F late fee and Section 234A interest at 1% per month apply.
An updated return under Section 139(8A) cannot be furnished where it would produce a refund, reduce tax liability declared in an earlier return or increase a loss or loss carry-forward. It is also barred where a search has been initiated under Section 132, a survey under Section 133A has been conducted, books or assets have been requisitioned under Section 132A, or assessment, reassessment, recomputation or revision is pending or completed for the relevant assessment year. The Finance Act 2025 amendment extending the window to forty-eight months does not relax these substantive bars, which preserve the disclosure-only character of the provision.

ITR-2 applies to individuals/HUFs without business or professional income but having (a) capital gains under Sections 111A/112/112A, (b) more than one house property, (c) foreign income or Schedule FA foreign assets, (d) agricultural income above ₹5,000, (e) director-in-company status, (f) holding of unlisted equity shares, or (g) RNOR/NR status. Salary plus capital gains from listed equity, even ₹100, pushes you from ITR-1 to ITR-2.
Specified mutual funds (debt-oriented, where 35% or less is invested in equity) acquired on/after 01-04-2023 — gains are deemed short-term and taxed at slab rates per Section 50AA, irrespective of holding period. For units acquired before 01-04-2023, the pre-amendment rule (LTCG at 20% with indexation if held over 36 months) continued; Finance (No. 2) Act 2024 further amended — for transfers on/after 23-07-2024, LTCG on such pre-existing units is taxed at 12.5% without indexation.
Section 80TTA allows up to ₹10,000 deduction on savings bank interest for individuals/HUFs (excluding senior citizens). Section 80TTB allows up to ₹50,000 for resident senior citizens (60+) on interest from banks, co-operative banks and post offices — covering savings, fixed and recurring deposits. A senior citizen claiming 80TTB cannot also claim 80TTA. Both are barred under the New Regime.
Under Section 87A read with the proviso inserted by Finance Act 2023, a resident individual taxed under Section 115BAC(1A) gets a rebate of up to ₹25,000 if total income does not exceed ₹7,00,000 — making tax NIL up to that threshold. Marginal relief is available where income marginally exceeds ₹7 lakh. Under the Old Regime the Section 87A rebate is capped at ₹12,500 for income up to ₹5,00,000.
