The error you're encountering while filing 26Q for Q1 seems to be related to the due date of tax payment not aligning with the credit date entered. Here’s how you can address this issue:
1. **Correct the Credit Date**: Ensure that the credit date you enter in the 26Q form accurately reflects the date when the tax liability was credited to the government. In your case, you mentioned the credit date as 07/04/22, which appears to be the date the tax liability was recorded.
2. **Enter the Correct Due Date**: The due date should typically be the date by which the tax payment should have been made to avoid interest or penalties. Since you mentioned the tax was actually paid on 19/08/22 with interest, this would be the correct due date to enter in the form.
3. **Resolve the Error**: To resolve the error in the 26Q filing: - Check the input fields where you entered the credit date and due date. - Ensure that the due date reflects the actual date when the tax payment was made (in your case, 19/08/22). - Update the form with the correct due date to align with the tax payment date.
4. **Review and Submit**: After correcting the due date, review all other details in the 26Q form to ensure accuracy. Once verified, submit the revised form.
5. **Documentation**: Keep documentation of the actual tax payment date (19/08/22) and any interest paid, as this information may be required for future reference or audit purposes.
If the error persists or if there are specific fields in the 26Q form that are causing confusion, referring to the form's instructions or contacting the helpline provided by the tax authority for assistance would be advisable. They can provide guidance tailored to your jurisdiction's regulations and help resolve any technical issues encountered while filing.
