ITR - U REFUND QUERY

Save Share

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

A taxpayer with Rs. 12,000 TDS has a Rs. 1,000 penalty and wants to know if they can adjust the TDS to reduce this penalty when filing their Income Tax Return (ITR). It's clarified that an updated ITR (ITR-U) cannot be filed if there's a tax refund. However, filing a regular ITR by paying the penalty and potentially not claiming the full TDS might be an option, though the excess TDS would need to be addressed.
