I have just filed a tax return in February 2017 and have to pay in an amount by end March 2017. Why am I asked to file ANOTHER tax return for provisional tax before the 28th February 2017?

If you are registered as a provisional tax payer with SARS you are unfortunately required to file another return by the end of February even if you did just submit your annual return.
