We had deducted TDS on Professional for the M/o March’2011 & same deposited on April’2011 in SBI, but bank have deposited this Challan in wrong minor code & wrong section.
We have deposit in Minor Code 200 but have deposit Minor Code 400 We have deposit in U/S 194J & bank have deposit U/S 192
At the time of ETDS Return filling I verify this Challan by ETDS software, showing invalid amount however CIN is valid. I check same on income tax site & amount is matching.
I had talked in bank regarding following error, they are saying we can’t change the data after submission, otherwise saying they refund the same amount to us & re-deposit TDS Challan & Re- filled E TDS return.
I have filed ETDS return, now I have received call from Vender who is checking Form 26AS getting error this TDS amount is unmatched.

Here's how you can handle the **TDS Challan unmatched due to wrong minor code and section** issue:
---
### Problem Summary:
* You deducted TDS under **Section 194J** but bank deposited it under **Section 192**. * You used **Minor Code 200** but bank deposited under **Minor Code 400**. * Because of this mismatch, the TDS amount is not showing correctly in the vendor’s Form 26AS. * Bank says they can’t change deposited details, only refund and you need to deposit fresh challan. * You filed e-TDS return but it's showing invalid amount due to mismatch.

### How to resolve:
1. **Check TDS return status on TRACES portal:**
* Visit the [TRACES website](https://www.tdscpc.gov.in). * Register/login as a Deductor. * Go to the **‘View TDS/TCS Returns’** section and check the status of the filed return. * Download the **Acknowledgment** and verify if the challan details show any mismatch or errors.
2. **Revising TDS return:**
* If the e-TDS return contains wrong details, you can file a **Revised TDS Return** to correct the challan minor code and section details. * To revise, you need to:
* Download the original return file in the utility. * Correct the minor code and section details. * Generate a revised return file and upload it on TRACES. * Keep in mind, the bank’s challan details must match for the return to be accepted.
3. **Bank Refund and Re-deposit (if revision is not possible):**
* If the bank refuses to revise the deposited challan, their only option is to **refund the wrong challan**. * After refund, deposit the TDS payment again with correct minor code and section. * Then file the revised return with the correct details.
4. **Coordinate with the bank:**
* Request the bank to initiate the refund of the wrongly deposited challan. * Make sure you get the refund acknowledgment. * Once refunded, deposit fresh challan with correct details. * Update your TDS return accordingly.
5. **Inform your Vendor:**
* Tell the vendor to wait for correction in Form 26AS. * Once the bank refunds and redeposits, and you file revised return, the TDS amount will reflect correctly.
