Currently, the most discussed topic after budget is new no dispute but trust scheme i.e. ‘Vivad Se Vishwas’. As per this scheme the taxpayer would have to pay the full amount of the disputed tax in return of complete waiver of interest and penalty, if he opts for the scheme before the end of this fiscal year and those who avail this scheme after 31st March, 2020 will have to pay some additional amount. Therefore, today we come up with some clarity regarding challan payment for paying tax or appeal fees. In this article I am covering the process of payment of tax online alongwith some frequently asked questioned on this matter.

- All the corporate assesses.
- All assesses (other than company) to who the provisions of section 44AB of the Income Tax Act, 1961 are applicable.

3. If I encountered any error on e-tax portal while making e-tax payment what should I do?
If encountered any error on e-tax website kindly contact TIN call centre at 020 – 27218080 or write to us at (Please indicate the subject of the mail as Online Payment of Direct Tax ).
4. What if my account gets debited twice for the same e-Tax transaction?
If during the transaction, or after completing the transaction bank site encountered any error or get disconnected before generating Taxpayer counterfoil, then instead of doing the same transaction again, kindly check your account. If account has been debited, then contact your bank for the taxpayer’s counterfoil. Please note that, in the above case, do not make the same transaction again which results in account being debited more than once for the same e-tax transaction.
