Challan 280 details of payment

 

You need to break up the tax payable into its components, i.e. “Income Tax” and “Education Cess” etc. There is no Surcharge for FY 2012-13 and education cess is 3%.

    • For Advance Tax: Filling only amount is fine but it would be best if you fill in the education cess too. So if you are paying Rs 10,000 as tax , pay 300 (3% of 10,000) as education cess too.
    • For Self Assessment Tax:   One needs to  pay education cess and also penalties calculated under Sections 234A/B/C and entered separately in “Interest” field. For example: So if total tax payable  Rs. 10,000, the Income Tax component is (10,000 / 1.03) i.e. Rs. 9,709, and Education Cess is Rs. 291 (3% of Rs. 9709).

Write down the name of the bank and income tax on cheque for example if you want to deposit it into Punjab National Bank then cheque will be in favour of PNB A/C INCOME TAX (Ref: CaClubIndia Whose name i should draw cheque for paying income tax)
