Seems, from the facts given above,that as per income tax records an amount of Rs.34,449/-plus interest is due from you for which they have raised demand now. Your grievances can't be taken up for rectification / revision / appeal since the time limit allowed for such course of action has already been expired. If at all you meet the ITO,I don't think the ITO can help you at this juncture. I may say that you seek professional advise from a CA / advocate with out delay.
