Outstanding Demand

I got a tax demand of some Rs 14000 in A.Y 2003-04, which I had paid by cheque and did not got a challan serial number for it from the bank. I forgot about it, but while logging into my account, I found that the particular demand is still outstanding. When I approached the bank to get Challan Number in 2020 now, bank did not had any records. So I again paid that demand of Rs. 14000 now in 2020 and the challan number was generated and BSR Code generated. I accepted the demand as "Correct" in the coloum of my account. Also lodged a quick griveance that Demand paid, but not reflecting as paid. Now, will I be charged the interest in outstanding amount uptill now/ There was no  amount in oustanding interest colum in generated challan. Will I get a interest demand again or not.? PLease help. I cannot find answers. Thank you.

Quick Summary
A user paid a tax demand in 2003 but lost the challan details. After paying it again in 2020, the demand still shows as outstanding. They are concerned about potential interest charges. Advice suggests checking Form 26AS and meeting with the assessing officer with payment proof to resolve the issue.

Dear Sir,

Sometimes it happens that even after paying demand, thebdemanf outstanding does not get cleared. Further, I would advice to check your 26AS whether the challan paid by you is shown in part c or not.

Best solution is to please meet the assessing officer with print out of challan and demand screenshot. 

No. If you have paid challan correctly, there will not be any interest.

If you are satisfied, kindly drop email to capravin87 @ gmail.com 

It must reflect in your ITR's post A. Y. 2003-04. Kindly check all your ITR's. and as said by Pravin, also meet the Assessing Officer to clear the matter.

For this just meet your  A O with challan print and demand details...
