Tax filing process on land sale for ltcg

We sold land in Nov'18 and which would be eligible for LTCG. Now when we approached CA to file Tax return in Feb'18, he says that the ITR portal is not allowing for tax filing right now and tax return can be filed only after Mar'19. Is it correct what the CA says?

Are we not supposed to pay any advance tax before Mar'19. Land was under my father's name who is retired with no pension so only income that has is from fixed deposits.

Appreciate any advice.
