I paid the TDS under 26QB and mistakenly under old regime now the company is asking for form 132 which obviously i can not provide so shall I pay it again under new regime and will i get the refund for the old regime or shall I ask for correction.
The correction might take a while and I urgently need the transaction completed so they can handover me the rest of the documents
If you are in a rush, you can pay the correct TDS amount again to get your documents from the company immediately. You can then claim a complete refund for the first, incorrect payment by logging into the TRACES portal, navigating to Statements/Forms > Request for Refund, and submitting Form 26B to your Jurisdictional Assessing Officer within 14 days.
Thanks. But its over 14 days now. Will they still refund or no option now ?
This is a known problem on TRACES and there are two routes depending on timing.
If the challan was filed within the last 14 days, you can raise a refund directly on TRACES under the 26QB tab using Form 26B:
- Log in to TRACES as a taxpayer
- Go to Statements/Forms > Form 26B
- Submit the claim with the duplicate challan details
If the 14-day window has passed, the refund goes through your Jurisdictional Assessing Officer (JAO). File a written application along with Form 30 (Claim for Refund), attaching both challan receipts and the property sale agreement. The AO verifies and processes it under Section 237.
Either way, keep both challan acknowledgements and the Form 26QB filings ready because TRACES will ask for them. This [Form 26QB and Section 194-IA guide](https://taxgarden.in/blog/tds-on-property-purchase-section-194-ia-form-26qb-india) covers the full refund workflow.
