Tax paid by any assessee is refundable after meeting its tax liability. . The liability is always borne by the members but it is to be paid through the AOP only. . If the member has paid tax by quoting his PAN No in Challan, he can adjust the tax in discharging his tax liability or he will get refund of excess tax paid. . If PAN No of AOP has been given in the challan- AOP will reimburse the same or adjust against his share in tax liability. .
