Yesterday by mistake, selected wrong assessment year while paying advance tax.

There is option in Income tax website to correct the challan, however, I am trying to correct the challan but getting below error:

 

Challan Identification Number(CIN) mentioned is incorrect, kindly verify the entered detail.

What should be done? As challan can be corrected only within 7 days and even after 24 hours, I am getting this error and not able to rectify.

The error is resolved now.

So, the issue was that challan details were not updated in Income Tax servers and it takes 2-3 days for processing.

If you have  made mistake while making income tax payment, wait for 2-3 days before applying for any correction request.

Correction in Income tax advance tax payment challan can be made with these steps:

  1. Login to Income tax account
  2. Click on Services
  3. Click on Challan Correction
  4. Click on New Correction request
  5. Fill the details and request for correction
