Revised Return Filing

Overview

Genuine errors are fixable — as long as you act within the window

Section 139(5) allows a revised return to correct a genuine mistake or omission in a return already filed — whether that return was filed on time or was itself belated. It can be filed multiple times within the permitted window, but the window does close: generally 31 December of the relevant assessment year, or before the return is assessed, whichever comes first.

Genuine errors corrected properly

Missed income, wrong deduction claims, or incorrect personal details — fixed with the right documentation behind it.

Filed within the safe window

We check how much time you actually have left before the revision deadline closes, so nothing is left too late.

Reviewed to catch anything else

While correcting the specific error, we check the rest of the return too, so you're not filing a second revision next month.

Questions

Frequently asked

01What counts as a genuine error I can revise?

Missed income, an incorrectly claimed deduction, a wrong bank account for refund, or an incorrect personal detail — anything that was an honest mistake rather than deliberate misreporting.

02How long do I have to file a revised return?

Generally until 31 December of the relevant assessment year, or before your return is assessed by the department — whichever happens first.

03Can I revise a return more than once?

Yes — there's no limit on the number of revisions within the permitted window, though each revision replaces the previous one entirely.

04Can a belated return be revised too?

Yes — a belated return filed under Section 139(4) can be revised under Section 139(5) the same way an on-time original return can.

05Why book a consultation instead of filing a revision myself?

You can file it yourself on the portal — but a revised return replaces the entire original filing, so a rushed correction can introduce a new error while fixing the old one. We check the full return, not just the line you're worried about.
