26 January 2012 No you can not claim deduction for TDS submitted out of your own pocket. You should have deducted the TDS. Now you paid this out of your own pocket to avoid dis-allowance of the expenditure. Now you can not claim this as deduction.

26 January 2012 You were supposed to deduct TDS but you did not. Now you will have to pass the entry as if you deducted the TDS and shortfall will be adjusted as amount short received. Nowhere it will give indication that it was paid out of own pocket.

Logic behind not allowing it as deduction is simple it is not related to your business expenditure and you were supposed to collect this amount from payee. So you will have to suffer for your own mistake.
