• Very informative. Have a query - roughly calculated tax payable for AY2018-19 to be 45,000/-. TDS of about 20,000/- has been deducted so far. Should I pay 25,000/- as self-assessment tax - 300 (or, advance tax - 100) before March 31st? Thank you.

  • Pay as advance tax

• sir whether epayment of defective return for the ay 2015-16 can be made in ay 2017-18?

  • No while paying you should select the relevant assessment year!

• I submitted my self assessment 2017-18 return without paying tax(10840-9800tds=1040balance). Now how can I pay balanced tax. I have to pay through challan 280 online Or they can adjust this tax with my last year refund.

  • The refunds for last year would have already been credited to your account, if you filed it within time limits. Also its always good idea to pay all balance taxes and file returns! If you have not paid pay it immediately using Challan 280.

• Excellent article to help pay self assessment tax through online banking. Appreciate it. Thanks.

• I have paid a total Self Assessment Tax of Rs 814/- (Basic Tax Rs 790/- + Education Cess Rs 24/-) for AY 2017-18. What amount should I put as Tax Paid (column 4 of IT Details of Advance Tax and Self Assessment Tax Payments) in ITR-1? If I input Rs 814/- in that column the system calculation is showing Rs20/- as Refund (item D13 of Part D). Do I then put Rs 790/- (basic tax) in the Tax Paid column? Moreover, do I have to pay any interest on the Self Assessment Tax?

  • Input the entire amount you have paid as self-assessment tax and let the ITR form do its calculation.

• Very informative article but i am not able to get the answer to my query,
  I had e verified the ITR and then realise that it still shows tax payable so i immediately paid the payable amount through challan 280.
