Form 10E is mandatory to claim Sec 89 relief. If you claim relief in the ITR without filing Form 10E, the return is processed but the relief is not allowed, and you see this in the Sec 143(1) intimation.

Analysis
File Form 10E online first, then file the ITR with the same relief figure. If you claimed relief of ₹22,000 without Form 10E, CPC will raise a demand of ₹22,000 plus interest. Filing Form 10E later and requesting reprocessing can fix it, but it is easier to do it in the right order.
