Different types of ITNS challan

 

We are currently in the age of technology, where everything is digitalized. With this digitalization, we have moved forward from the earlier days of tax-paying, which used to be quite a hassle. Earlier, individuals or companies would have to pay taxes in their respective banks, which would be later collected by the income tax department. This method was considered quite difficult and bothersome as people or companies would pay the incorrect amount of tax. Due to this, the government would always suffer.

  The government after struggling for many years, decided to have a technological intervention wherein they introduced the concept of an online tax accounting system or OTLAS in the year 2004. With the involvement of technology, there were fewer human interventions, fewer errors, and easy payment of taxes.

This online system of paying taxes provides a single challan that helps taxpayers to track the status of taxes filed online.
