06 August 2008 As per my opinion, excess TDS deposited can be transferred to short & excess account, but you can not escape from the liability of short deposit of Professional tax. For advances too, you can write off the amount, but you must have the proofs to satisfy the AO that all necessary legal actions were taken for the recovery of these advances, and it was impossile to recover them, so these are written off.
