The TRRN identifies a month's return and challan. A return counts as complied with only when the payment against the TRRN succeeds. If your bank was debited but the challan still shows unpaid, wait a working day, check the TRRN status, and if it stays unpaid, send the bank's transaction proof to the regional office. Don't pay twice.

  1. Return accepted; challan generated with TRRN
  2. Pay through net banking or the gateway
  3. Bank confirms; TRRN shows paid
  4. Members' passbooks updated
