Now,as on 14th Nov 2019, when I go to Rectification request—-> Fill all Numbers—> Drop down gives different options. Not, as in above reply. Now, drop down has options:

  1. Additional Information for 234 C2.
  2. Only Reprocessing the case
  3. Return data correction (XML)

I am to correct only one TAN no in TDS sheet.
What  and how to do it now?
