I have gone through your expert guide on Rediff.com. Kindly deliver your advice in my case as well. Thanks Sir.

I am a salaried class employee and filed ITR 1 for FY 2019-20 in Aug 2020. Inadvertently, I paid self-assessment tax twice through online (Rs 17,000 paid twice amounting total of Rs 34,000).

I wrote to the IT deparment for refund of the excess amount of Rs 17,000. The IT department advised me to file rectification online through my IT account. I tried in vain.

Kindly guide me in this regard.

Sir, I have filed my IT return on 26th July 2023 where the refund was Rs.66000/- I have filed a revised return on 28th July 2023 with a refund amounting to Rs.112000/- Today i.e on 9th August I have received refund of Rs.66000 as per my original ITR file but not as per revised ITR. Kindly guide how to get the refund as per revised ITR filed by me.

I'm a salaried individual, used ITR-1 to file returns on July 29, also paid the additional tax liability of Rs 40000 as Self assessment, but couldn't submit it due to technical issue. Since then I've raised 3 tickets to helpdesk. Now, the tax liability is showing as Rs 74000 when I file again choosing after due date option.

I made an error while paying my self-assessment tax for the assessment year (AY) 2022-2023. Instead of selecting AY 2022-2023, I mistakenly chose AY 2021-2022 for which I had zero earnings and should not owe any tax. Unfortunately, I have received a demand for Rs. 90,000 for AY 2021-2022 as a result of this mistake. To make matters more complicated, for AY 2023-2024, I was entitled to a tax refund of Rs. 60,000, but it was adjusted against the demand for AY 2021-2022. Now, I'm eager to correct this mistake, clear the tax dues for AY 2021-2022, and obtain my refund for AY 2023-2024. I'd appreciate guidance on how to proceed with these corrections and adjustments.

Sir, While filing the return for AY 2024-25, I had, by mistake, paid the balance of tax amount and TDS i.e. Self-Assessment Tax twice through online procedure. Both these amounts appeared in AIS under different BSR Codes and challan numbers on the same date. In the return, obviously, only one of the amounts had been entered and hence only one of the amounts was accounted for in the tax calculations while the other amount remained unaccounted, though appearing in AIS. The return has been duly processed under 143 (1) with no demand- no refund. Now, the question is- how can the unaccounted and unused amount appearing in AIS for AY 2024-25 shown as Self-Assessment Tax can be utilised for the next AY, viz 2025-26 as Advance Tax? What procedure should be followed? Alternatively, can this unused amount be claimed as a refund, through a revised return showing both these amounts or a rectification return would be appropriate? Shall be grateful if you kindly guide me as to how to do this. R M Khatsuria, Pune
