One of my friend has filed ITR 1 on 1st of August 2022. There is no tax due after deducting the TDS as per Form 16. But, due to late filing, he has to pay Rs. 5000/- late fees. He paid that amount on the same day, but failed to fill up the challan details in the ITR.
Now, the IT department has raised a demand for Rs. 5000/- Can he go for rectification in the IT Portal under the head SERVICES and furnish the challan details of the said payment ? Is it correct ?

With reference to the above, my friend has tried to file Rectification and while doing so, he has selected the reason in Serial No. 2 - Demand paid and Challan has CIN (With open challan details). On proceeding further, in the next screen, the portal asks "Please Enter the amount not payable for the above reason". The challan details of the payment already made, also appears, showing Rs. 5000/- as unclaimed challan amount. Here, what must be the amount, whether '0' or ' 5000'. Because, he tried both and on both the occassion, the next screen " Amount payable " dialog box appears prompting with ' Pay Now '. How to proceed ?
