Provisions and law
- Sec 115BAC (now Sec 202)New regime is the default; business filers opt out with Form 10-IEA by the Sec 139(1) due date

Analysis
The FAQ notes that a form filed with the wrong due date selected gets an Invalid status, and FAQ 18 says a filed form cannot be revised or withdrawn in the same year. If the form is still valid in the portal, your choice holds; if it shows invalid, check whether a fresh filing within your correct due date is possible, or raise a grievance. Use the help text on the screen to pick the right due date next time.
Conclusion
- Check the form's status in View Filed Forms.
- If valid, keep the acknowledgement.
- If invalid and time remains, seek advice on refiling or a grievance.
- Pick the due date carefully in future.
