Please ask the deductor (employer) whether he has filed tds returns or not?if he has check the processing status of the return. Check deductees details specially PAN in the tds return.
if he has not filed tds return, then ask him to immediately file the same.
unless credit is reflected in form 26as, demand wont abate.

I appreciate your anguish. But this is how rules stand. You do have the option of complaining to the jurisdictional TDS AO. But then it will take its own course and time.
therefore it is advisable that you pursue the client and give soft warning that you will approach tax authorities if he doesn't revise the TDS returns.
