Pay taxes without fees (False alarm)

Update - This trick doesn't seem to work. I will confirm once my transaction is settled.

Three days ago, Axis Bank uploaded devaluation PDFs, prompting me to pay 2 lacs as advance taxes. Opting for the Canara Bank payment gateway, I proceeded with the transaction, fully aware that a fee would be levied (0.47%). However, I was taken aback when the fee amounted to Rs. 2146, a little over 1% of the total payment, inclusive of taxes.

Today, I found myself facing another tax payment situation (Self-assessment tax). This time, I decided to explore an alternative payment gateway and chose HDFC PG. To my delight, when making a self-assessment tax payment of approximately Rs. 1.10 lacs, I noticed that no fee was imposed. I paid the exact amount without any additional charges, leaving me super happy.

Please share your experiences.
Just checked. I have been charged 1%.
