A taxpayer can rectify his income tax return online if there is an apparent mistake in the return already filed.

The change can be effected only after the taxpayer has received an order under Section 143(1) from CPC Bangalore for the e-return.

Rectification enables correcting the error and refilling the return for assessment.

To do so, one needs to log in to the income tax e-filing website with the login name and password that have been used for filing the return.
