The e-filing portal of the income tax department has enabled the e-Pay Tax service with wider payment options including RTGS/NEFT and Payment Gateway modes.
The income tax e-Filing website now offers e-Pay Tax service with wide range of modes for payment of taxes including Net Banking, Debit card, Pay at Bank Counter (Over the Counter), RTGS/NEFT and Payment Gateway (with sub-payment modes as Net Banking, Debit Card, Credit Card and UPI). Under RTGS/NEFT mode, payment of taxes can be made through any bank that offers this service. Tax payment through Protean website [NSDL] is also available to taxpayers as per the existing process.
Taxpayers are required to make the tax payment within 15 days from generation of challan (i.e. 15 Days from the date of CRN generation). In case of Advance Tax, the taxpayers need to make the payment within 15 Days from the date of CRN generation or 31st March of Current Financial Year, whichever is earlier.
