Is aadhaar mandatory for revised return?

Efiling 193 views 5 replies

I don't have the Aadhaar card yet so e-filed my tax returns in June (before the July 1 PAN-Aadhaar mandatory linking came into force).

While e-filing, I assumed that after reporting my income in full, the online system (incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in) would take me to a page where I pay the tax. However that didn't happen and I ended up e-filing and verifying my return without paying the computed tax. I also assumed that after e-filing, I would get a notice with a link to go and make the payment, but that didn't happen either.

How can I pay self-assessment tax post efiling of returns?

If I have to do a revised return u/s 139(5) do I have to quote an Aadhaar number? (I don't have one at the moment and will apply for one only after my name and address spelling is corrected on my PAN and Voter's ID).

Advisable to pay self assessment tax, before it gets processed.......... It may be considered while processing.......... or otherwise only rectification would be required.

You can pay SAT online by selecting challan ITNS 280

 

Thank you, Mr. Rambhia. I have paid the SAT just now (plus 3% edu cess) and saved a copy of the ITNS 280 challan.

If the IT department sends me a notice, I can just share the challan details with them (without having to re-file), right?

Lastly, will I have to get an Aadhaar number linked in case I do have to file a revised return?

The SAT paid by you will get reflected in your form 26AS  in about 4 working days.........

So, the tax demand will not arise........ nor any interest or penalty......... 

But as soon as your aadhar gets updated, better get linked it to PAN.....

In rare case if you have to revise........ it should be ready.. Good luck.......

Thank you very much for your guidance! Much appreciated.

One more query. I have read that Aug 31 is the last date for linking PAN/Aadhaar else they will not process returns.

I don't have Aadhaar yet and I filed before July 1 (when they said it was ok if one didn't have Aadhaar). Will my returns be processed?
