Ensuring Proper E-Verification for Both Original and Revised Returns in Income Tax Returns (ITR)

Did you learn that you need to e-verify both your original and revised Income Tax Returns (ITR)? If you made mistakes in your submissions and had to revise them, here's what you need to know to ensure your returns are valid and taken up for assessment.

What is E-Verification?

E-verification is a crucial process for filing Income Tax Returns (ITR). It’s part of the electronic verification process that confirms the authenticity of the returns, ensuring that they are filed voluntarily and correctly.

Verification Requirement for Original and Revised Returns

Both your original and revised ITR require e-verification. If you do not verify your original ITR, it will not be processed even if you update it later. The same rule applies to the revised ITR, which stands null and void if not verified within the specified period.

Validity of the Revised Return

In cases where you have made multiple revisions to your ITR, you must ensure that both the original and all subsequent revisions are e-verified. Verification of the original ITR is mandatory. Once properly verified, the latest version (revised return) will be considered for assessment.

Verification Process

When you file a revised return, you must provide details of the original return that was already verified. If the original ITR is not verified, the revised return will not be processed. This means that both the original and the revised ITR must be submitted and verified within the 120-day period after filing the original return.

Consequences of Not Verifying

If either the original or the revised return is not e-verified, the return will become invalid. It is essentially as if the return was never filed. Therefore, it is crucial to complete the e-verification process within the specified time frame to ensure the legitimacy and processing of your ITR.
