10 February 2011 May I kindly add that although it is not mandatory in accordance with the Income Tax Act, 1961 that Form 16 be issued to the employee under the given circumstances, nonetheless, practically, it will be issued. Moreso because the employee will provide his investment proofs to his employer, who will, only after due verification of the same, will not deduct the tax on the salary income, and therefore, be under a 'customary' obligation to issue Form 16.
