By mistake at the time of upload of Epayment I had selected as usual in the sequence of GTA payment like Basic, Cess, HEC for the payment of "Other Services" under the Head 00441089 since it was new for me I had not noticed the same that 1089 head was coming in the bottom after the CESS & HEC, so I wrongly put the Basic amount in the Cess(298)instead of 1089, HEC (426)instead of Cess (298).

Please help me by providing the information :
