Query 1: Separate challans are mandatory. You cannot combine Major Head 0020 (Company) and 0021 (Non-Company) in one payment.
Query 2: Separate challans are mandatory. You cannot combine different Nature of Payment sections (e.g., 194C and 194J) in a single challan, as each requires its own specific section code selection.
