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:
- Login to Income tax account
- Click on Services
- Click on Challan Correction
- Click on New Correction request
- Fill the details and request for correction
Thanks a lot sir. Let's wait and see.
The CIN error might be related to a delay in system updates or incorrect entry formatting, which happens more often than expected. In a way, it reflects how even small mistakes can create big obstacles, much like in Idols Of Ash where timing is everything.
