How do i have to show in my next IT returns regarding this payment.
2. you need to pay the amount mentioned in the demand notice. it is to be paid as tax on regular assessment Code 400
3, 4, 5. You can just mention the amount in tax column equivalent to the demand amount. No need for bifurication between interest, tax, surcharge etc.
6. yes it can be paid online: refer https://onlineservices.tin.egov-nsdl.com/etaxnew/PopServlet?rKey=-1643048451
7. It wont reflect in your tax return next year as the payment is for current year. However, if you are making profit and loss account, it may appear as an adjustment in provision for taxation.
8. There is no need to file any document. The demand should automatically be adjusted by the IT department. In case they still ask you question, you can show the copy of the challan
