Demand raised for Inoperative PAN


This query is : Open 

Quick Summary
A user is seeking advice after receiving a demand for inoperative PAN, despite now having linked it to Aadhaar. They need to know if they must pay the full 20% TDS or if they can file a correction statement for their 26Q return (Q2 FY 2023-24) now that their PAN is operative. The concern is that the IT Department might argue the higher TDS rate applies because the PAN was inactive on the deduction date.

09 January 2024 Sir,
Demand raised for inoperative PAN (Pan not linked with Aadhaar on the date of filing TDS return). Now PAN is linked to Aadhar and status of Pan is operative.
Do we need to pay total tds @ 20%. Or since PAN is operative now, can we file correction statement without paying 20% tds. Plz guide. This is for 26Q for Q2 of FY 203-24.

RAJA P M (Expert)
09 January 2024 revise the TDS return and deduct TDS as per applicable provisions

20 January 2024 The IT Dept may argue that on the date of deduction, the PAN was INOPERATIVE so higher TDS is applicable. Good Luck anyway.
