04 August 2024 If you've received a notice u/s 143(1) indicating a net amount payable of ₹160 and have already made the payment online, here are the steps you should follow:

### **1. Intimating the IT Department:**

Yes, you should inform the Income Tax Department about the payment you have made. This will ensure that your payment is properly recorded and that the outstanding demand is updated accordingly.

#### **Steps to Intimate the IT Department:**

**a. Confirm the Payment:**
- Ensure that the payment was successfully made and check the challan receipt or payment acknowledgment for confirmation.

**b. Use the 'Response to Outstanding Demand' Facility:**
- **Login to the Income Tax e-Filing Portal:** Go to [Income Tax e-Filing Portal](https://www.incometax.gov.in/).
- **Navigate to the ‘Compliance’ Section:** Look for the 'Outstanding Tax Demand' or similar section.
- **Select ‘Respond’ to Demand:** You will find options to respond to outstanding demands. You can upload the payment confirmation or provide details about the payment made.
- **Provide Payment Details:** Attach or enter the details of the payment made, including the challan number, payment date, and the amount paid.
- **Submit the Response:** Once you provide the necessary information and upload any required documents, submit the response.

**c. Contact the Tax Office:**
- If you are unable to resolve the issue online, you can visit your local Income Tax office or contact them via phone or email to inform them of the payment and seek assistance in updating your records.

### **2. How to Check if the Issue is Resolved:**

**a. Check the Outstanding Demand Status:**
- **Login to the e-Filing Portal:** Access your account on the Income Tax e-Filing Portal.
- **Navigate to ‘Outstanding Demand’:** Check if the demand status has been updated after you submitted your response.

**b. Verify Payment Records:**
- **Check Payment Records:** Ensure that your payment is reflected in the ‘Tax Payment’ section under the ‘View Tax Credit’ menu. The payment should be visible in Form 26AS (Tax Credit Statement).

**c. Monitor Notices and Communications:**
- **Wait for Confirmation:** The IT Department will generally send an acknowledgment or updated notice confirming the resolution of the demand if it is processed correctly.

**d. Follow Up if Necessary:**
- **File a Complaint or Query:** If the outstanding demand still shows up or there is no update, file a complaint or query through the e-Filing portal or visit the Income Tax office for further assistance.

### **Additional Tips:**

- **Maintain Records:** Keep a record of all communications, receipts, and acknowledgments related to the payment and any responses sent to the Income Tax Department.
- **Seek Professional Help:** If you encounter difficulties or if the issue persists, consider consulting a tax advisor for personalized assistance.

By following these steps, you should be able to ensure that your payment is acknowledged and the outstanding demand is resolved.
