24 July 2013 Dont worry you will get credit of TDS if employer deducted TDS from you even if he defaulted in depositing the TDS.

In a recent development pursuant to the judgment of the Delhi High Court in Court on Its Own Motion vs. UOI 352 ITR 273, the CBDT vide Instruction no. 5/2013 [F.No.275/03/2013-IT(B)], dated 8-7-2013, directed all officers that -

when an assessee approaches the Assessing Officer with requisite details and particulars in the form of TDS certificate as an evidence against any mismatched amount, the said Assessing Officer will verify whether or not the deductor has made payment of the TDS in the Government Account and if the payment has been made, credit of the same should be given to the assessee. However, the Assessing Officer is at liberty to ascertain and verify the true and correct position about the TDS with the relevant AO (TDS). The AO may also, if deemed necessary, issue a notice to the deductor to compel him to file correction statement as per the procedure laid down.
