Income Tax Return - Defective Return Notice

Dear Professionals, One of my friend's filed ITR for one of his clients, subsequently he got notice of defective return due to non-maintenance of books of accounts. In that return, Capital Gain income was wrongly calculated and interest income was also not disclosed. Now, in response to 139(9) notice, can we only fill full financials as the defect was due to this reason only OR we can also disclose interest income and correct capital gain income in response to said notice. If we change income, can ITR be again treated as invalid??

As now the revised return due date has been extended it is better to file complete and correct return.
