Hi,

I filed my tax via quicko. After processing I received a email from income tax stating i need to pay additional 220 RS. I paid that as well. After several months i received a mail stating i didn’t pay 220RS and additional 6 rs interest also they are asking me to pay. I raised a grievance in their portal. Below is their response and I’m not able to understand what they are telling. Pls clarify what needs to be done here.

Hi,

I got the exact same reply. I am also in the same boat but for a higher amount 2580/- even though I paid it immediately.

Could you please let me know next step on how to proceed?

Thanks,

You have to revise and file your IT again and while filing you have to adjust the amount accordingly with respect to the notice you received initially.

Hello @akrit,

In case of outstanding demand, tax has to be paid under minor head 400> Regular assessment and response has to be submitted by logging on to the income tax website that the demand is paid and providing challan details along with that.

Hi @Mukul_Sharma

Since it is a notice-related query, you can book a MEET and consult with a tax expert to comply with the notice from the Income Tax Department.

After paying the challan you have to refile the IT return with the new taxable amount and tax amount paid.

#13

hi Pushpa,

Thanks for the reply.

So i had already payed the amount and challan was generated. but still it was showing the outstanding amount.

Now do i have to again pay the amount plus the interest and refile the IT return with the new taxable amount and tax amount paid?

or

Refile the IT return with the new taxable amount and tax amount paid?

If u had paid the chellan on time then no need to pay again. Just refile the IT.

#15

Kindly say how to refill, couldn’t find any option

#16

Hey @Anilkumaar_v_r,

The due date to file a revised ITR u/s. 139(5) has expired. However if you have made the payment for demand on time then you can raise a rectification request by adding that challan details in the ITR. Additional interest on demand is not required to be paid.

Hope this helps!
