  • No "Offsetting": There is no legal provision to "offset" or adjust tax paid under the wrong head against a correct liability directly in your return. You must either transfer the balance (via PMT-09) or pay the correct tax and claim a refund for the erroneous payment.

  • Interest: If the error led to a short payment of your actual tax liability, you may be liable for interest on that shortfall from the original due date until the date the correct tax is actually paid.
