Challan 280 is a form available on the official website of Income Tax India. This challan can be used to make online payment of income tax. The challan can be filed online or can be submitted offline as well to pay the tax.
Manual payments are getting outdated in the digital era and certain types of taxpayers are now required to mandatorily pay income tax through online modes only. However, taxpayers can still remit offline income tax payment through banks along with Challan 280.
What is Challan 280?
Challan 280 is a form that can be used by a person to make an income tax payment of self-assessment tax, tax on distributed income and profit, regular assessment tax, advance tax, and surtax.
Another name for the form is “ITNS 280.” Whether you pay your taxes online or offline, you must use Challan 280 for the transaction.
