ITR Filing 2024: If you have made a mistake while filling out the ITR form, don't panic! Use the Discard option immediately..
Mistakes in filling out the ITR form are common. Sometimes taxpayers forget to fill any specific information in the form and sometimes information about any income is not available. If you have also made any mistake in filling out the income tax return form, then there is no need to worry. If any mistake is made in the form, then the Discard ITR option of the Income Tax Department comes in handy. This option can be used. If you have filled in any kind of information incorrectly or have forgotten to give any kind of important information, the Discard ITR option can be useful for both situations.
How to use the Discard ITR option
The question is also how to use the Discard ITR option. To use this option, you will have to come to the e-filing portal of the Income Tax Department.
www.incometax.gov.in → Login → e-File → Income Tax Return → e-Verify ITR → “Discard”
Now first of all you have to log in to the e-filing portal of the Income Tax Department.
After this, on the 'e-File' tab, in 'Income Tax Return', you have to select the 'e-Verify Return' option.
With a new page opening, you will see the unverified ITR.
Here you will see two options e-Verify and Discard.
You can click on the Discard option.
Important condition regarding Discard ITR option
The Income Tax Department has released the latest update regarding this on its official website. The department says that the Discard ITR option can be used only before verifying the ITR form. This option can also be used more than once.
After filling and submitting the ITR form, if you feel that there is some mistake in any information, then you can immediately visit the portal and use this option. However, those taxpayers who have filled and verified the ITR form will not be able to use this option.
