Step 1: Go to the ITR filing website (https://www.incometax.gov.in/iec/foportal/) and sign in with your credentials. Choose the “challan correction” option located under the “Services” column.

Step 2: A new webpage will open. Here select ‘create challan correction request’.

Step 3: Now a new webpage will load. You will be prompted by the income tax portal to choose the relevant field that needs amending. A taxpayer has three possibilities: (a) modifying the assessment year; (b) altering the tax applicable (major head); and (c) modifying the payment method (minor head). After selecting, click “Continue.”.

Step 4: The taxpayer will be prompted to submit details about the income tax return that requires adjustment in the following phase. Either the assessment year or the challan identification number (CIN) should be given here. After that, click “Continue.”

Step 5: A new webpage will open depending on the choice selected. If the user entered a CIN number, the challan details will be shown. Otherwise, if an assessment year (AY) has been selected, a list of all challans connected with that AY will be displayed. One has to choose the challan which has to be modified. Once you’ve selected your choices, click the Continue icon.

Step 6: An individual needs to input the proper details of the earlier chosen option. Continue by selecting the icon. The example of updating the assessment year will be seen in the picture below.

Step 7: Once the proper details has been successfully input, the taxpayer has to verify the alteration in the tax challan. Through net-banking, Demat, and bank accounts, the verification can be done using an Aadhaar OTP, a digital signature certificate (DSC), or an electronic verification code (EVC). After selecting the authentication option, click Continue.

Step 8: Once the correction is successfully e-verified, the income tax e-filing website will show the success message along with the transaction ID. Keep this transaction ID handy to track the status of the correction request submitted.
