17 March 2025 Hello Sir,

During my ITR filing, I had an outstanding amount to be paid. I made the payment using a challan through ICICI Bank, but the challan details were not entered into the ITR system. As a result, after two months, I received an outstanding demand notice from the Income Tax Department.

To resolve this, I paid the outstanding demand again using a challan from ICICI Bank and correctly entered the details in the ITR system. My outstanding demand was closed, and my ITR was successfully verified.

However, I had already made the first payment, which was not accounted for in the system. How can I claim a refund or adjustment for the first challan payment?
