02 August 2025 If you’ve already paid the interest and filed a revised TDS return but the default is still showing online, here are a few steps you can take:

1. **Verify Payment Details:**

* Check that the interest payment was correctly deposited under the right challan type (code 400).
* Ensure the challan details (BSR code, challan number, date) are accurately mentioned in the revised TDS return.

2. **Wait for System Update:**

* Sometimes the TDS portal takes a few days to update the status after payment and revised filing.
* Wait for 3–5 working days and check again.

3. **Reconcile Challan and Return:**

* Use the **TDS Reconciliation** facility on the TRACES portal to verify if the interest payment and TDS return are properly matched.
* If mismatch persists, file a **Grievance/Request for correction** on the TRACES website explaining the issue.

4. **Contact Jurisdictional TDS Officer:**

* If the default continues to show, raise the issue with the assessing officer or TDS jurisdictional officer for manual rectification.

---

### Summary:

* Interest should be paid under **Challan Type 400** (Interest).
* The default won’t be removed until the system reflects your interest payment and revised return properly.
* Give it some time and then follow up with TRACES support or your TDS officer if issue persists.
