What it is and how we handle it
Defective-return notices often hit freelancers and small businesses: TDS on professional or contract receipts appears in 26AS, but the return shows salary or other income only, or the wrong ITR form was used.
The response is filed on the e-filing portal under e-Proceedings by uploading a corrected return against the notice — not by filing a fresh revised return. We identify the defect, correct the return and submit it within the window.
