Are you not willing to pay the tax dues? If not any specific hitch?

Even it there is any reality of receiving a notice from IT Department, don't you feel, it is shameless question on your part, if you feel any hesitation to pay such a meagre amount of Rs.4, as tax due?

That is computer generated. Just ignore and relax. Do not respond.

Expert cherukuri prasad sir,
Are you sure, the computer system would not start recovery procedure for this small amount? May be ignored if manual intervention done at later stage.
Practically, IT department is going to loose in this collection, Apart from normal follow up expenses it has to pay Rs. 20-25 to Banker for depositing / collecting the challan for Rs. 4/-.

Without description by the querist, the assumption on the part of Shri Cherukuri Prasad about the notice being computer generated or the reason to ignore is not understood.

As per Section 288B of IT Act amount is five or more to be increased to the next higher amount which is a multiple of ten and if the last figure is less than five the amount shall be reduced to the next lower amount. Amount 4 payable is not understood and it can not be and same is to be brought to the notice of IT Department CPC so the computer programme can be corrected as per IT Act.

Mr dhingra why will I hesitate to pay 4/- as I have already paid about 36000/- and it is the miscalculation from my CA that I have to pay Rs 4/- extra now but the amount is so low I didn't know how to pay it that's y I asked how to pay in my next part of my question if you would have had read my query completely u wouldn't have asked such rubbish thing to me publicly 😝

Dear Shri Jain,
It is merely an academic query of the querist, not a problem, as he has not given any detailed description of the problem, more particularly about whether he rounded of the total tax payable & paid, or rounded off under various different sub-heads of taxes like income tax, education cess, surcharge etc., which was essential elements of problem to be disussed for solution.
Contrarily, he simply stated about receipt of notice and wanted to knpw whether he should pay or not.
I hope you would like to appreciate that there was no room for the experts to presume that he would have rounded off the tax as per provisions of section 288B.
Had there been any real problem, he would definitely have discussed the background of the case.

Mr. Naveen Mehta,
I have not asked you any rubbish thing, rather your own question was quite rubbish.
Question arises, have you discussed anywhere in your original query that you had paid Rs. 36,000/- as tax or how you rounded off the tax amount or there was a calculation mistake on the part of your own CA, which you have stated, as a lame excuse?
Your simple question was about receipt of notice without discussing even the contents of the notice and under which section the notice was served to you.
The question arises, if you had already paid Rs.36,000/- where was the justification of your question to ask from the experts here, instead of your own CA, for necessity to pay Rs 4/-, when you knew that it was miscalculation from your CA?
Not only that was your own CA so incapable to tell you about how could you pay that amount, while you had adopted some specific method to pay Rs. 36,000/-, as tax?
If you think you have put your questions before idiots, who would not understand anything or the artificiality of the problem, you may better think of your own position, what you could be in that case. In fact, your own thinking is rubbish.

What is the opinion of your CA? anyhow, in such cases, the IT Department attaches the copy of the challan and this could be credited in any Nationalised Bank.

Deposit the same through challan (form 280 online) on the basis of notice giving demand reference.

Much is much. Pay it through challan and close the chapter.

If the intention of the author was to pay the demanded amount then his query would have to ask for the procedure and not the liability.

Mr. Naveen Mehta,
Did you mention anywhere what was told to you by your own CA and what some other CA? Even here also, one expert has advised you you not to respond, ignore and relax. You are free to act upon that advice also.
When you have utterly failed to discuss your problem appropriately, why do you feel annoyed, if some questions were asked or your query was treated as an academic query, which it reveals so?
Question arises, do you believe that you have put your question before a class of astrologers to predict what is what of your problem and what should be the solution for that? Even to an astrolger, you have to give proper background.
Also, have you anywhere stated, how your CA calculated the tax amount, whether by rounding of the individual elements of tax or the whole of the tax amount.
Mind it, there is no question of making any guess at legal parlance, if you hide the basic facts.
