on data entry and for filing a amended return etc
TR 6 CHALLAN SCREEN
YYYYMM column is not for the month/date
on which payment is made but corresponds
to the period for which the payment is being

The challans should be serially numbered
financial year wise. No challan number
should be repeated during the financial year.

acknowledgement number as a confirmation of the
filing. Once assesse gets an acknowledgement
number, it implies that the ST-3 return has been filed.
