Dear Editor2,
Could you help me with the following doubt?
In the case of a correction request for the Amount Paid/Credited details, the system gives us an option for Landlord Approval or AO Approval (if the PAN of the landlord is unknown).
However, if we select landlord approval and say they do not have a Traces account, how will they approve it? What should we do in that case?
