25 September 2013 Have they demanded interest /penalty on the same. If so, pay the same(if found true) and write a letter to the ITO(TDS) of your circle and give them a reply that you have complied to their notice.

28 July 2024 To pay a TDS demand amount for a late filing of the TDS return, you need to follow these steps:

### Steps to Pay TDS Demand Amount

1. **Review the Demand Notice:**
- Carefully read the demand notice received from the TDS department. It will detail the outstanding demand, including interest and penalties, if applicable.

2. **Calculate the Total Demand:**
- Confirm the total amount payable as per the demand notice, including any interest and penalties.

3. **Log in to the TRACES Portal:**
- Go to the [TRACES Portal](https://www.tdscpc.gov.in/app/login.xhtml).
- Log in using your TAN (Tax Deduction and Collection Account Number) and other required credentials.

4. **Verify the Demand:**
- Navigate to the "Demand" section on the TRACES portal.
- Verify the demand details and ensure they match the notice you received. You can download a detailed report if needed.

5. **Make the Payment:**
- **Offline Payment:**
- You need to make the payment through the bank where the TDS is deposited.
- Use the challan form 280 for making the payment.
- Fill in the details: TAN, PAN, assessment year, and the type of payment (e.g., TDS on Income Tax).
- Visit the bank to make the payment and obtain a receipt.

- **Online Payment:**
- **Visit the NSDL Portal:**
- Go to the [NSDL e-Pay Tax Portal](https://onlineservices.tin.egov-nsdl.com/etaxnew/).
- **Select Challan 280:**
- Choose Form 280 from the list of available challans.
- **Fill in the Details:**
- Enter your TAN, PAN, assessment year, and other relevant details.
- Select the appropriate section for TDS.
- **Make the Payment:**
- Pay the amount using online payment methods such as net banking or credit/debit card.
- **Generate the Challan Receipt:**
- After payment, download and save the challan receipt as proof of payment.

6. **Update the TDS Return:**
- If the demand was due to late filing, you should also rectify and resubmit the TDS return, if not already done. Ensure that the updated return is filed with the correct details.

7. **File a Rectification Request (if applicable):**
- If you believe there has been an error or discrepancy in the demand, you can file a rectification request through the TRACES portal. Provide the necessary details and supporting documents for your claim.

### Important Points

- **Due Date for Payment:** Ensure that the payment is made promptly to avoid further penalties or interest.
- **Keep Proof of Payment:** Always keep a copy of the challan receipt or payment confirmation for your records.
- **Follow-Up:** Monitor the TRACES portal to confirm that the demand has been cleared and no further action is required.

### Additional Resources

- **TRACES Portal Helpdesk:** For any issues with the TRACES portal or demand verification, you can contact the TRACES helpdesk.
- **Bank:** Consult with your bank for any issues related to offline payment of the challan.

By following these steps, you should be able to address and pay the TDS demand amount efficiently. If you encounter any issues or require further assistance, consulting with a tax professional or chartered accountant might be beneficial.
