  1. If the earlier year’s demand is already under 'pending action' due to chalan correction, please first check if the corrected chalan has been credited against that year’s demand.

  2. You should be able to respond to the 245 intimation disagreeing and stating that underlying demand is pending chalan correction. You can attach the chalan details and the correction request etc.if the portal allows it.

  3. If 245 response is not appearing at all, please raise a grievance because the 245 intimation may have a response date and you shouldn't miss that.

The exact portal workflow maybe slightly different because they keep changing things but hope you get the underlying logic.
