CA filing rectification on a client's behalf
Updated . Every paid answer is checked by a CA. Free AI answers are labelled until a CA verifies them.
Facts
Registered ERI users can file rectification for clients they have added, and authorised signatories or representative assessees can also file. The request still needs e-verification through EVC or a registered DSC.
Provisions and law
- Sec 154 (now Sec 287)Rectification of mistake apparent from record in an intimation or order
Analysis
If your CA works as an ERI, they add you as a client with your consent and file from their login. Otherwise they can work in your login with you sharing the OTP for e-verification at the end. Either way, you should see the reference number in your own account. Do not share your password permanently; use the OTP only for the session.
Conclusion
- Decide whether the CA will file as ERI or from your login
- Approve the ERI client request if that route is used
- Review the request type and figures before submission
- Provide the OTP for e-verification and save the reference number
