Quick Summary
If you've generated a Self Assessment tax challan on the IT portal but haven't paid it yet, there's no need to worry. Unpaid challans simply expire after 15 days and don't create any tax liability. You can view them under 'Generated Challans' but there's no option to delete them. If you accidentally paid the wrong amount or for the wrong assessment year, you can use the 'Challan Correction' feature on the e-filing portal.

Generated means...???
Ask clearly pls.

Nothing to do if it wasn't paid:

• A challan generated on the e-pay tax portal (CRN) but not paid simply expires after its validity (15 days). It doesn't create any liability or entry in your tax records.

• You can view it under e-File → e-Pay Tax → Generated Challans. There's no delete option, and none is needed.

• If paid by mistake under the wrong head or AY, use Challan Correction (e-filing portal → e-Pay Tax → Challan Correction) for AY, minor head and major head, within the prescribed time.
