Q1. Can I pay Interest and penalty fees through single challan (online) or need to pay separately?
Q2a. Can I pay just the interest and not pay the Late fees? If yes, how do I intimate the tax department that I am not paying the late fees?

Dear Sir
1. You can Pay the Interest and Penalty through a single challan 26QB
2. Since you were the responsible person to deduct TDS and pay it to Govt. within stipulated time. And you are not eligible to recovered this interest and penalty from concern party
You need not to download TDS certificate again after paying these payments
3. If you don't pay the penalty amount alongwith interest than you could face a penalty Rs. 10000.00 for not complying with notice under sectin 271 of income tax act 1961.

I had paid the TDS through 4 challans(since there were 2 buyers and 2 sellers) after dividing the TDS amount of 54500 into 4 equal parts.
What is the late fee that needs to be paid in my case - The payment wa delayed by 171 days Should it be 171*200 = 34200 or the full TDS amount paid earlier i.e. 54,500.
Also, do I have to make the payment fo late fee + interest in 4 separate 26QB forms or in a single form?
Please let me know.
Thanks.
