Quick Summary
If you've made a mistake with the name or PAN on an advance tax challan, correcting it can be challenging, especially if the details belong to different individuals. If the error was made within 7 days, the bank where the payment was made might be able to assist. Otherwise, a formal application to the Income Tax Department or an Ayakar Seva Kendra (ASK) is usually required. The process is often time-consuming and difficult, particularly if the incorrect PAN and name belong to entirely separate taxpayers.

There is a mechanism to correct  the details  of the challans entered wrong for paying T.D.S  in T.D.S TRACES and as well as at Department.

In the same manner  please visit nearest Office of Income Tax Department.They may help you out. Or else you can also contact ASK (Ayakar Seva Kendra).

When PAN and name are of different assessee entered in advance tax challan , it is very very difficult to correct it.

You have to follow a tough process . it's time consuming.

It will be little bit easy if anyone of PAN and Name is mis-matching
If it's within 7 days, then it can be corrected through the bank branch through which AT had been paid. or else you need to wait... the AT should not have been consumed by the wrong PAN assessee... then you can file application for correction.. but still it's a tedious and time consuming as stated by Mr kapadia
