You said”In case you are submitting original and revised returns, do not print them back to back. Use two separate papers for printing ITR-Vs separately.”

Please clarify? In my wife’s returns – we filed the original return online without digital signature and got an E-Filing-Acknowledgement number for it – say noA. But before sending the ITR-V signed for this efiling – we figured a mistake and submitted a revised return again online. The revised return carried the mention of the original return-noA too. All this was done within the deadline… We got the ITR-V for the revised return – say B. We only printed and mailed the ITR-V for the revised return – B. The online status for this confirms that the ITR-V for revised return has been duly received.

We did not send the ITR-V for the original return A. Few days ago we got an standard email from donotreply@incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in asking for the ITR-V – with the email refering to the original efiling-acknowledgment number. We ignored it assuming that the revised filing overrides it…

DO WE NEED TO SEND THE ITR-V for the ORIGINAL TOO…???

Very good question and answer is simple

Yes you have to submit the ITR V for original return also .The reason is that we can revise our return only if we have filed a original return ,here original return is valid only if we submit ITR V as required .To to validate the revised return first we have to validate original return .Thats my version of the case .Further In view there is no harm to submit ITR V of original return what ever the opinion of any person.

Further the Do’s & Don’ts has been released by the Income Tax department & available on e filing site also.
