2) Whether in such case applicant has to make payment in 15 days or it will be automatically extended to 31/12/2020 even though there is no amendment in Sec.5 of VSVS 2020.

3) If payment is not made within 15 days, as mentioned in form no.3 is the declaration under Form-1 shall be treated as void and shall be deemed never to have been made. In that case can i re apply the same application online.

Dear Experts,

In one of the cases, after filing the return for AY 2018-19, the assessee came to know that he has filed the return showing reduced income in business as compared to actual income (The turnover was also shown lesser than actual). The return was filed using ITR 4 Sugam declaring income U/s 44AD. The return was duly processed by CPC.

Now the assessee wants to declare his true income by filing a revise return but he is not able to do so as the time limit for filing revise return already expired.

So should he file a rectification online by increasing the Turnover and net profit ( Deemed Profit U/s 44AD) to Actual ?

As per my understanding if there is change in income rectification should not filed but revise return.

Please guide.
