Paying income tax online

hello mr harshit,

i think u are about to file itr 1 or 2. 

listen. if u file return online , than u are not required to send the hard copy anywhere, just have a print out of the acknowledgement generated, for ur convinence.

also u are required to first deposite the tax and than file the return. because u have to fill the details of deposited challan in the return.

to deposit tax online open the efiling website of incometax. there u will find a tab saying "pay taxes online".

after clicking on it fill in the required fields and choose self assessment tax (300). u have the options to pay from debit card or credit card or online banking. chose appropiate medium and select ur bank name. you will be redirected to ur bank's website .

but remember to deposite before 8PM. oyherwise u will have to wait till next day for processing of ur tranastion.

at last i want to ask you ....that how u have filled the return and how the website accepted it without providing the details of challan??

Thanks for the Reply !!

 

Yes I have Filled ITR1.

 

After E-Filling the ITR, you have take the Printout of the ITRV and sign it and send it to the Banglore center, after which u will get the ITRV reciept.

 

There is no need to put the challan number i Guess, one can pay the tax later also.

 

Let me know if i am wrong anywhere.

 

Thanks !!

No dear its not like that..... Ist of all I want to say that after online filing you don't need to send the hard copy to banglore(read instruction for filing return on the income tax website for more details) Secondly, I want to inform you that you have to first deposit the tax and then fill in the appropriate details of challan in the return.(department major concern it's on deposit if tax) If u don't provide details of tax deposited in the return than u might get a notice of defective return u/s 139(9). Or u can be served a demand order.
