Whether credit for earlier taxes paid against disputed tax will be available against the payment to be made under Vivad se Vishwas?

Ans. The amount payable by the declarant under Vivad se Vishwas shall be determined by the DA under clause 5. Credit for taxes paid against the disputed tax before filing declaration shall be available to the declarant. Please refer to example at question no. 26 above. If in that example against disputed tax of ₹ 10,000 an amount of Rs. 8,000/- has already been paid, the appellant would be required to pay only the remaining Rs. 2,000/-  by 31^st March 2020.
