I have filed four quarters of 26Q returns F.Y 2016-17 Sucessfully. Now we identified that one Vendor PAN Number is wrongly mentined in all the quarterly returns. Question: Is there any charges for Online PAN correction. (PAN Correction is morethan 3 Digits).
I have purchased a property in New Delhi, the registration for which was done on 8-Dec, 2017. The major part of the payment was done on the date of registration after sale deed was made. Since I have availed Bank Loan, the bank cheque along with the remaining payment from my end was handed over together to the seller (75 Lac – 85K (TDS amount)). Before issuing the bank cheque, the bank had asked me to deposit TDS and provide Form 26QB on the entire amount, I believe the same is required by the Sub-registrar for Sale of a property before Sale deed is registered. Since TDS filing system doesn’t allow TDS deduction for a future payment date, I had to enter a date in the past. I was suggested to use the date of “Agreement to Sell” (payment of 10 Lac) as the date of payment by the Bank official, which was 30-Oct. Now I have got a demand notification since the payment was made after the due date. I want to correct the Date of payment now to avoid this penalty but TRACES is not letting me do this. Please guide and help.
You cannot enter a past date for a payment which has to be made in future since the liability arises on payment only and interest thereon will be levied accordingly. Form 26qb can only be generated for the amount of payment made. You can make correction online only since the facility for correction is available online only
