Forgot To Claim TDS in ITR AY 24-25

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

If you've forgotten to claim TDS on your AY 24-25 Income Tax Return (ITR) and a demand has been raised, don't worry. First, verify that the TDS is correctly reflected in your Form 26AS or AIS. If it is, you'll likely need to file a rectification request. The preferred method is to use the 'Rectification' option under 'e-File' and select 'Return data correction (Offline)' to upload a corrected return. If this method fails or shows an error like 'No record found', you can submit a grievance detailing the issue and attaching proof from your 26AS.

11 June 2025 Hello ,
While Filing ITR for AY 24-25 , I have forgotten to take credit of TDS due to which a demand is raised.
While Filing Rectification via tax credit mismatch
the following message appears
No record found for the entered PAN.
What is the solution?

11 June 2025 First, Confirm These Basic Details:
Is the TDS reflected in Form 26AS or AIS?

Log in to the Income Tax portal → "e-file" → "Income Tax Forms" → "View Form 26AS".

Or use AIS/Taxpayer Information Summary (TIS).

Ensure the TDS amount and deductor TAN are correctly reflecting there.

Was the TDS claim missed while filing the original return?

If yes, a demand will naturally be raised.

Now, for the Rectification Process:
Option 1: Use “Rectification” – Income Tax Return correction (not tax credit mismatch)
Since the portal says “No record found” under Tax Credit Mismatch, follow this method:

Go to: Login → e-File → Rectification → New Request

Select:

Assessment Year: 2024-25

Request Type: Rectification

Request Category: "Return data correction (Offline)"

Download your previously filed JSON, correct the TDS section using utility (Excel or JSON) or your ITR software.

Upload the corrected return with correct TDS claimed.

Important: Do not file a Revised Return if the original return is already processed — only Rectification is allowed after processing.
If Rectification Option Still Doesn’t Work:
If even under "Return Data Correction" the system throws errors or blocks you:

Use the “Grievance” section to report the issue:

Go to: e-Nivaran → Submit Grievance

Choose Category: Rectification or Tax Credit Mismatch

Explain: “TDS credit available in 26AS not claimed while filing return. Portal not allowing rectification request due to ‘No record found’ error.”

Attach 26AS proof and ITR-V.

11 June 2025 Thanks For the Response Ram Sir
TDS Entry is showing in 26AS
While selecting Return data correction (Offline) option it wont let me add new TDS entry as it is not a mistake apparent from record
Tax credit Mismatch is only the Logical option according to me
But No record found is shown
Look like raising Grievance is the only way possible
Just For Clarification :
in the original ITR No TDS Entry was shown
So in Tax Credit Mismatch does it allow you to add new TDS Entry or just to edit the Original Entry or both?
Also can i use form 71 for the same?
Thanks for your help
