18 March 2009 Employer is bound to take proof of investments/ exemptions/claims availed by the employee before deducting tax. In the cited case employer had not done so. So the employer is liable to pay interest u/s 201(1A).In addition to interest penalty proceedings shall be initiated u/s 221 of the income tax act,1961.
