My client is a partner of a Firm having 6 partners. The firm is having Contract income. The income is coming in my name which is credited to the Firms current account . The firm files return and shows the My TDS in the firm's account. The firm got a demand notice from IT department stating that the firm has to pay tax and the partner has to claim TDS refund. As per partnership act the amount received in the name of any partner on behalf of the firm can be treated as firm's income, why the IT department is not allowing to set-off the TDS. They are telling the new software doesn't allow to set-off. What is the solution for this issue??????
