Challan Number 03009940310201300002 for the amount 32033 in H1 Section does not exist in the Database.

IN ABOVE CASE CHALLAN IS SHOWING IN CHALLAN VERIFICATION, IT SEEMS THAT SOON AFTER PAYMENT THE RETURN WAS FILED, WHAT TO DO, IF RETURN TO BE RE-FILED OR WAIT

first of all thanks to all for helping me out.

Sanjeev Sir, i also faced the same problem. but after sometime the error got automatically corrected. there is no need to revise the return, just wait for some time & then no such error in return will be there.

Sir,

In my opinion the following step to be taken by uoy

01. Check the Status of your challn on CES.GOV.IN and match the ST-3 Return.

02. If not tally with the challan status and you paid by you then you meet the Bank's Officer.

03. If the Bank is right way the check your hand.

04. Find the problem and Revised the said Return. You can Revised the Return within 90 days.

I also submitted various ST-3 return online and face the same error in Assessee Dataand rectify them.

Don’t submit return immediately after depositing tax wait for challan update. Deposit tax on time or before atleast 2 days from filing of return to avoid this error.

Dear All, I have a query related to Service Tax filling. If an organisation is new and expect to have the revenue of less than 9 Lakh. The organisation has not collected any service tax from its client. Should that organisation file the ST-3 Form as there is no tax collection and there is no tax liability?
