Hello everyone,

Mrs. X's self assessment tax was Rs.5000/- and i paid that online in her PAN.

However Mr.X's Self assessment tax was NIL but by mistake i paid the self asssessment tax Rs.5000/- in his PAN.

My question :

1. Can i claim refund of Rs.5000/- by filing ITR since total income is less than the taxable limit ?
