Dear Sir,
It is natural to make a mistake or two when you do something you don’t do often or are not used to doing – like filing income tax returns. Sometimes we may miss entering certain information. Sometimes there could be an error. In such cases, you will get a defective notice as per Section 139(9) to rectify them.
Common cases when the notice for defective return is sent:
a. When you have filled up details of taxes paid, but have not provided income details, the Income Tax Department deems it defective.
b. A notice for defective return is sent when tax deducted has been claimed as a refund, but no income details are provided in the return.
c. The Department sends you a notice for defective return under Section 139(9) when you haven’t paid your taxes in full.
d. When you are required to maintain a balance sheet and profit and loss statement but haven’t filled in the details in your income tax return, the tax return is declared defective.
e. The name mentioned on the income tax return does not match with the name on the PAN card.
The time period of usually 15-30 days is allowed to rectify such defective return.
For me to assist you further, it is necessary to first understand the exact reason for such problem which could be tracked only from the notice you have received.
I am sending you an email, in reply to which you may send me the copy of the notice received.
Thanks!
