   Facts

   A response submitted on e-Proceedings cannot be edited, updated or withdrawn. What you can do depends on whether the time to respond is still open and whether the return can still be revised.

2. P

   Provisions and law

   • Sec 139(9), Income-tax Act 1961 (now Sec 263(7), Income-tax Act 2025)The Assessing Officer can treat a return as defective, give 15 days (or more on request) to fix it, and treat it as invalid if not fixed.
   • Sec 139(5), Income-tax Act 1961 (now Sec 263(5), Income-tax Act 2025)A return can be revised within the allowed period to correct a wrong statement.
3. A

   Analysis

   If the notice still allows another response within the time, check whether the portal lets you submit a fresh response. If not, and the revision window for that year is open, a revised return can carry the right figures. If both are closed, write to the officer through the grievance route or wait for processing and then use rectification if an error arises. Act quickly, because each step narrows the options.

   Conclusion

   1. 1Check whether the notice still shows an open response option.
   2. 2If open, upload the right file with a short note.
   3. 3If closed, check whether a revised return is still possible for that year.
   4. 4Keep a note of what was uploaded wrongly and when.
