18 June 2009 Hi,
The AO can levy the penalty of tax not deducted at source u/s. 271A. The penalty will be the amount of tax not deducted. The grounds you will have to take depends on the facts of the case. Try to establish the non existance of mens rea, mistake committed by inadvertantly, no intention to defeat any provisions of the law. submit the copy of return of that assessee and show that the full tax has been paid by that assessee and there is no loss of revenue. Assessee will take care in future. etc. grounds may kindly be taken. Try to convience the A.O.

18 June 2009 Dear Ritu
Non deduction of TDS may face following consequences.
1) Dis-allowance of Transport Expences u/s 40(a)
2) Penalty equal to TDS not deducted u/s 271C
3) Interest u/s 221 for defaulting Assessee
Assessee should do
show the non deduction is for genuine reason or there is no mal-intention but note this may remit the penalty but u can not save ur self for the disallawance of transport exps.
