I need some help on filing rectification for AY21-22. I have recently received a notice for demand under section 156, which needs to be responded within 30 days.
Earlier, I had filed rectification in the incorrect section "Tax credit mismatch" instead of "correction of details and therefore could not update details of my tax payment and requisite challan.
This tax was actually paid within a few days of filing the original return for AY21-22 but is not showing in the return
Please advice on how I should update this tax demand and requisite challan no. in the revised rectification, which I intend to file now.
Also, is there any mail id where notice for incorrect demand can be replied to, as they do-not reply to any grievances.

Login to E filing income tax site. Respond to the demand by updating the challan details your demand will be adjusted and nil demand will be shown.

Dear Sir, I had responded to demand last year, stating that I have paid these taxes already. But the demand was not adjusted for almost 1 year by CPC and there was no reply to my mails or queries. Not knowing what to do next, I accepted the demand by CPC, but mistakenly filed the rectification under wrong section (TDS/TCS mismatch) instead of data correction. Should I now file rectification again under correct section (tax payments not match as per order) and update challan details, as I cannot reply to outstanding demand now. It is for AY21-22. pls advice

Thanks Sir. Just one request. Should I accept the demand and then choose demand paid, as the basic demand is correct and I have already paid it last year. If I still face issues, I shall then try to reach you. Do appreciate your advice.

Sir, If I accept the demand the system is asking me to pay the balance interest, from April 2022 till date, which itself is incorrect, as no interest should be applicable, since I had paid all due taxes in Dec 2021. Hence, should I now disagree with the demand. Thanks a lot.

Sir, system is asking to pay interest amount. It is really painful, I have been trying for hours today. There is no way, if you accept the demand, the system calculates the interest amount payable till today. This is factually incorrect, as the due amount was paid least year within just a few days of filing my return and there should be no interest accrual. Finally, though I decided to pay this incorrect interest amount, but was still unable to do so. Now there is a system error and it is asking me to contact customer service.

Just update already paid the tax. No need to pay interest now. File grievances it will be resolved. No need to pay interest in such a case.
