17 June 2013 Dear sir,

For F.Y. 2012-13 (i.e. A.Y.2013-14) My employer has not given me form 16 generated from Traces. Although TDS is not applicable (i.e. ZERO) on my salary income for thiS f.y. 2012-13. But Still Is it compulsory for employer to give Form 16 from Traces only irrespective of whether TDS is applicable or not?. Because in my IT Return in ITR-1 , I have mentioned my Gross Total salary Income with my company Tan and name. So I understand that inspite of no TDS(ZERO TDS) , An entry for Salary income should reflect in Traces under my PAN A/C. but since my employer has not given me FORM 16 generated from traces , that income is not reflecting. However I have mentioned this income in ITR-1 as Salary. So is it valid ? kindly reply. Is it compulsory for employer to give form 16 generated from traces even though there is 0 tax ?

2)ask your employer to provide form 16 part B..and can also file return basing on salary slips/certificates
