Hi,
I made TDS payment through 26QB for a property purchase. I made the payment for Rs. 58,696 which is 1% of the full value in May 2020. I had made the booking for the property in Feb 2020, 3 months prior to the payment date. The challan and payment amount reflect the correct amount Rs. 58,696(0 interest, 0 penalty). However, the Form 16B downloaded from Traces has only Rs. 44,022 as the amount remitted. Please help me understand why there is a mismatch. How can I fix this?
Hello,
In for 24Q under annexure II (salary details), deduction shown earlier can be modified in correction statement..?
Yes, you can modify the deductions
I already submitted the 24Q 4th quarter 2019-2020 but there is some correction in the annexure II data 80C and 80d which deductible amount is not shown in the statement But I can get the online correction is it possible to correct the data and submit
Yes, you can do the online correction.
I have filed the original TDS Return 26Q for Qtr 2 on 19-10-19. However, later on, I have added 2 challans of 24Q online by mistake and downloaded Conso file for revising return so that I can delete both the challan.
I have filed the TDS Return 6-7 times but they rejected with reasons “Total Amount of Tax Deposited validation failed (Sum of Tax + Interest + Surcharge + Others + Fee should be equal to Total Challan Amount”
I have checked every time and the challan matches with the deductee TDS amount. Also, the Justification report could not be downloaded stating no error is there.
Now, please guide me on how to rectify it.
Please contact to department
I’ve filled up Form 26QB but before payment of TDS, a mistake in the form was seen. Instead of going for the correction I generated new Form 26QB and paid the TDS amount. Now, do you need to do something above the first 26QB for which I did not pay tax?
No, you don’t need to do anything for the first 26QB for which you have not paid tax.
No, you don’t need to do anything for the first 26QB for which you have not paid tax.

Hi,
Kindly help me in adding challans for a short deduction demand in traces. I paid short deduction amount alone in one challan 281 and another challan 281 for the interest amount. I just added these challans to that quarter statement without doing any modification and the statement got “processed with defaults”.
What is the mistake I am doing? kindly help me, please. step by step instruction would be great-full if anyone replies. thanks
Just adding challans to the statement is correct if there is a demand for only interest and late fee. However for short deduction of TDS you need to request conso file, import it into the department’s utility/ TDS software and do the changes in deductee records and then file a correction statement.
Hi,
There is a TDS short deduction for the FY 2018-2019 Q2 and got a notice for the same. Paid the Short deduction by challan 281 and when filing time the interest amount also was there which was paid subsequently in another challan 281. When I do the add challans in traces the traces process it with defaults.
Don’t know where I am making the mistake. While adding the challans to the statement I just simply save the pop-up window and go for the correction. Is it the correct way or I need to change any values in the edit challan option while adding? guide me for the exact procedure step by step so that this won’t get processes with defaults. thanks
Hi, I filed a TDS correction statement online, but it has been submitted to Admin user and I don’t have Admin user Login details. Any suggestions/ Solutions how I can solve this.

Hi sir,
I am Suri, After I filed TDS correction Return in traces, it rejected with reason “Total amount of Tax deposited validation failed (Sum of Tax + Interest + Surcharge + Others + Fee Should be equal to total Challan Amount)
Please give me a solution for correction filing
Dear all,
I HAVE FILED THE Q3 RETURN BUT TWO VENDORS ARE SHOT DEDUCTION PAYMENT DONE. I PAID THE ANOTHER CHALLAN WITH INTEREST, PLEASE TELL ME THE PROCESS OF HOW TO CORRECTION IN ONLINE WITH NEW CHALLAN
Firstly you have to add challan to your statement via online correction. Once the challan is added, request conso file, import it into the fvu and do the necessary corrections. You have to divide the amount paid/credited of deductees in proportion to TDS deducted in different challans & show it accordingly.
Hi,
I received Demand Payment against my Form 26QB submission for TDS on the sale of the property. I paid the demand via new challan. How do I add it to Form 26QB? Do I need to File Correction? I tried but do not see any option to add challan?
Thanks
Nitin
A separate challan is given for demand payment in case of TDS on sale of the property. You will have to pay the amount via that challan only by filling the particulars of notice, demand raised etc. No need to add it to Form 26Q. Traces will automatically remove the demand with challan paid.
Validation Error. Total Taxable Amt in challan should be=sum of pay amt of the attached deductee rows
Validation Error. Tax Deducted in challan should be=sum of Tax Deducted in attached deductee row
