26 July 2025 Ah, I see your issue clearly now — your client deposited TDS challans directly at the **Treasury** (not via the regular TIN-NSDL/OLTAS system), and those challan details are not showing up in the OLTAS portal for reconciliation.

### Here’s how to proceed:

1. **Treasury Challan vs OLTAS Challan**

* When TDS is deposited directly at the Treasury, the Treasury generates its own challan number and receipt.
* However, **for the TDS credit to reflect in the TAN’s account on the TRACES portal, the Treasury challan needs to be reported to the Income Tax Department** (usually by the department where the Treasury operates).
* This causes delay and mismatch on OLTAS/ TRACES portal.

2. **Matching Treasury Challan with OLTAS**

* Usually, treasury payments are not auto-populated in OLTAS.
* You will need to get a **"credit confirmation" or "TDS credit certificate"** from the Income Tax Department.
* The deductor or client should approach the jurisdictional **Assessing Officer or TDS cell** with treasury challan details.
* Request manual updation/verification of TDS credit in their TAN account.

3. **Filing TDS Return After Treasury Payment**

* Even after depositing TDS at the treasury, the **deductor is required to file TDS returns electronically** (using Form 24Q, 26Q etc. as applicable).
* While filing the TDS return, mention the treasury challan details (challan number, date, amount, BSR code).
* If treasury challan is not accepted by the TDS return system (because it expects OLTAS challan), you should attach a letter/explanation for reference.
* Alternatively, the deductor may be asked by TDS authorities to submit proof of treasury challan while processing returns.

4. **Next Steps for Your Client**

* Keep treasury challan receipt safely.
* Contact jurisdictional TDS officer or income tax department helpdesk.
* Provide challan details for manual matching or updation.
* File TDS returns with challan info and proof of treasury payment.

---

### Summary:

* Treasury challans don’t automatically reflect in OLTAS.
* Contact jurisdictional IT authorities for manual credit.
* File TDS return with treasury challan details.
* Keep all treasury payment proofs ready.

If you want, I can help draft a letter or email to the Assessing Officer or TDS cell for manual credit updation. Would that help?
