Facts
AIS has a feedback option for information that is duplicate. Marking it lets the department use the right value when it compares with your return.
Provisions and law
- Sec 285BB, Income-tax Act 1961 (now Sec 510, Income-tax Act 2025)The department provides an Annual Information Statement showing information it holds about the taxpayer.
- e-Filing portal, Compliance Portal (e-Campaign)Taxpayers view and answer e-campaigns and e-verifications through Pending Actions on the e-Filing portal.
Analysis
Duplicates happen when two reporting sources report the same item, such as a company and a registrar. Check the amounts, dates and source codes to be sure it is the same item. Mark one entry as duplicate and point to the other. Then respond to the campaign that the income is correctly reported once in your return.
Conclusion
- Compare the two entries on date, amount and reporting source.
- Mark one as duplicate in AIS feedback.
- Respond on the Compliance Portal that the item is already in your return.
