In many cases it is filed in a hurry without looking into all facts. But this negligence can cost you a lot. Always make sure to enter the year for which the payment is made. Also specify the reason.
In case the year is not entered , the department may refuse it to adjust for that year and may ask to pay again and claim refund for the amount deposited wrongly. Although if that can be substantiated , the benefit will be there.
But yes, litigation cost will be a sunk cost.
