Confused about my ITR status
I filed my ITR for AY 2026-27 and, based on the amount shown as payable in my return, paid ₹14,800 as Self-Assessment Tax (Minor Head 300) on 31 July. The return was later processed under 143(1), and CPC raised a demand of ₹14,940, mainly because they recalculated my 234B interest higher than what I had reported.
I responded to the outstanding demand with the details of my ₹14,800 challan. However, the ITR status now shows “Refund/Demand: Nil”, while the Outstanding Demand section still shows the ₹14,940 demand as pending.
Has anyone faced this discrepancy, and should I wait for the demand to be updated or take any action?
