Article explains how we can get corrected Physical Income Tax / TDS challan after payment through Bank with period of correction and format to apply for correction.

Recently I faced a situation where the tax demand on regular assessment of my client for A.Y 2016-17 was deposited with a nationalized bank but wrongly the said payment of demand was done towards A.Y 2017-18. This situation may have been faced by many assessees because there may always a possibility of mentioning wrong Assessment year or wrong PAN/TAN etc in the TDS Challan or in Income Tax Challans.

Income Tax Challan TDS Challan

In such situation the first thing that comes to mind is how one can get the challan corrected after the payment of tax so that right credit of tax is given to the assessee/deductor concerned. The power to amend such wrong details in challan after payment of tax in OLTAS has been given to Assessing officer and Bank depending upon the type of correction, which has been provided as follows for the benefit of all concerned. At present, the banks are permitted to correct data relating to three fields only i.e. amount, major head code and name. The other errors can be corrected only by the assessing officers.

The fields that can be corrected and the entity authorized to carry out corrections on challan with deposit date less than September 1, 2011 are as below:

Sr. No. Type of Correction on Challan Performed By
1 PAN/TAN Assessing Officer
2 Assessment Year Assessing Officer
3 Major Head Assessing Officer /Bank
4 Minor Head Assessing Officer
5 Nature of Payment Assessing Officer
6 Total Amount Bank
7 Name Bank

In case of  physical challans with deposit date greater than equal to September 1, 2011, the fields that can be corrected by the Taxpayer through Bank are tabulated below:

Sr. No. Type of Correction on Challan Period for correction request (in days)
1 PAN/TAN Within 7 days from challan deposit date
2 Assessment Year Within 7 days from challan deposit date
3 Major Head Within 3 months from challan deposit date
4 Minor Head Within 3 months from challan deposit date
5 Nature of Payment Within 3 months from challan deposit date
6 Total Amount Within 7 days from challan deposit date

The time window for correction by the bank is 7 days from the date of receipt of correction request from the tax-payer.

Please Note

 1. Thus application should be made for correction to the A.O or Bank in case of any mistake in Income Tax/TDS Challan depending upon the type of correction as mentioned above.

2. For challans with challan deposit date from September 1, 2011 to September 30, 2011, the time limit for correction in TAN/PAN, Assessment Year and Amount will be within 45 days from challan deposit date.

Conditions:

The changes can be made by the banks, subject to following conditions:

i. Correction in Name is not permitted.

ii. Any combination of correction of Minor Head and Assessment Year together is not allowed.

 iii. PAN/TAN correction will be allowed only when the name in the challan matches with the name as per the new PAN/TAN.

iv. The change of amount will be permitted only on the condition that the amount so corrected is not different from the amount actually received by the bank and credited to Govt. Account.

v. For a single challan, correction is allowed only once. However, where 1st correction request is made only for amount, a 2nd correction request will be allowed for correction in other fields.

vi. There will be no partial acceptance of change correction request, i.e. either all the requested changes will be allowed, if they pass the validation, or no change will be allowed, if any one of the requested changes fails the validation test.

Procedure:

i. The tax-payer has to submit the request form for correction (in duplicate) to the concerned bank branch.

ii. The tax-payer has to attach copy of original challan counterfoil.

iii. In case of correction desired for challans in Form 280, 282, 283, the copy of PAN card is required to be attached.

iv. In case of correction desired for payments made by a tax-payer (other than an individual), the original authorization with seal of the non-individual taxpayer is required to be attached with the request form.

v. A separate request form is to be submitted for each challan.

Procedure of challan correction by Assessing Officers (both physical and e-payment challans)

After the window period available to banks for challan correction, the assessee can make a request for correction to his or her assessing officer, who is authorized under the departmental OLTAS application to make such correction in challan data in bonafide cases, to enable credit of the taxes paid, to the concerned assessee.

  31. Surendra says:

    I have made excess payment of advance tax while paying “ONLINE” through SBI. An extra “ZERO” added by mistake changed the amount from thousands to lacs and its hurting me.

    Can the bank correct the challan ? IF not can the Assessing Officer do it ? If so, what’s the circular/ notification no. Please give me the details. Both Bank and AO have refused saying claiming “REFUND” is the only answer. The IT Dept website gives details of challan correction mechanism but does not quote any circular

  32. Ben Nazareth says:

    We had deposited an advance tax on 12/09/2007 in our bank. When the advance tax was uploaded the PAN was wrongly entered due to which it is not reflecting against our name in 26AS.

    We submitted a letter to the Assessing for rectification of the same alongwith the bank certificate and tax payers challan counterfoil. The same has

    been rectified by the AO, but it is still not reflected in the 26AS. I was informed that NSDL is responsible for the 26AS entries. I have written to them and attached the screenshot got from the AO showing the change in PAN with all supporting documents. Unfortunately they have still to respond.

  39. RAKESH KUMAR AGRAWAL says:

    Dear Sir,
    I also faced same problem self assessment tax was deposited as tax paid on regular assessement, I approached the AO he extrended his help in gettong corrction on OLTAS and correction is carried out by him

  40. M. Lakshmanan says:

    In our own case while paying the advance tax in the Bank for the assessment year 2007-08 instead of quoting the PAN of the firm PAN of the partner was written the challan. Then it was accepted by the Bank also though the PAN and the name did not match because the Bank did not have access to PAN data base. While processing the return demand was raised with interest. Since the assessment of the partner was also in the same Commissionarate, rectification petition was filed in April 2009 giving details of assessment of the partner wherein the advance tax was not claimed. But till date there is no response from the department. It is not known whether the Income Tax Officers are aware of the powers given to them for correction or they are not able to carry out the corrections because of lack of computer knowledge.
