I hold a family pension account with a nationalized bank. For the FY 2010-11, the bank deducted a TDS of Rs.40000/-(approx.). When I approached the bank, I was told that Pension accounts are subject to TDS and hence bank has deducted the TDS rightfully. My contention was that since it is a family pension account, it is not subject to TDS as Family pension is considered as "income from other sources". With this proposition, I approached the Ombudsman and the Ombudsman upheld my argument partly and directed the bank to pay (only) the interest on the amount of TDS deducted. The interest amount was paid from the date of deduction of TDS till the date of judgment by Ombudsman. However, the Ombudsman also stated that the issue of TDS is outside the ambit of the clauses mention under the Banking Ombudsman Scheme (BOS) and hence asked me to approach Consumer Redressal forum.
I was reading the Income tax department’s official document on TDS where I came across 2 circulars:
1. Circular no. 285
2. CIRCULAR NO. 2/2011 [F.NO. 385/25/2010-IT(B)], DATED 27-4-2011
Both the circulars talk about ‘Refund of TDS’ by the IT authorities to the deductor (in this case, the Bank).
I would want to know if (on the basis of either or both the circulars) I can ask the bank to file a claim to the Assessing officer for the refund of TDS. (as the TDS applicable is nil and TDS deducted is Rs.40000).
I approached a few CAs and most of them found this case complicated.
Will appreciate if the experts could help me out with their valuable inputs.
Thanks.

Sir/s,

A businessman knowingly purchased certain fake bills from one person and issued cheques against those bills.

after some time those businessman gave notice to those person through his advocate stating that those fellow (who has issued the bills) has not paid the sales tax on the said bills and as a result those businessman received a notice from sales tax department. those businessman through his advocate called upon the said person to interfere in the said matter.

prior to this the sales tax officer has already called upon those person and pressurised him to execute a writing that he has not paid tax on particular bills.

what remedy is available in favour of those person against the said businessman as well as the sales department?

pl. reply this. it is an urgent matter.
