If you’re unable to see the detailed default information on the TIN-NSDL portal despite logging in with your TAN, here are a few steps and tips that might help you get the specific details:
1. **Check the ‘Defaults’ or ‘Communication’ Section Carefully:**
* After logging in on the TIN-NSDL site, look for a section called **“Communication”**, **“Defaults”**, or **“Outstanding Defaults”**. Sometimes the details are available under specific links or downloadable files.
2. **Download Default Files:**
* Look for any downloadable files or letters regarding defaults. The portal sometimes provides a **default statement file (in text or PDF)** which explains the type of default — whether it’s late filing, short TDS deposited, mismatch in PAN, or something else.
3. **Verify Email Attachments:**
* Check if the email you received from TIN-NSDL has any attachments or links that directly open the default details.
4. **Contact TIN Helpdesk:**
* If you are unable to see the default details on the portal, you can raise a ticket or call the TIN helpdesk:
* Toll-Free Number: * Email: [tininfo@nsdl.co.in](mailto:tininfo@nsdl.co.in) * Explain that you received a default notice but are unable to find the details online.
5. **Cross-Check with Form 26AS and Challan Status:**
* Sometimes defaults arise due to mismatch between TDS returns and Form 26AS or challan payment status. * Check your Form 26AS on the TRACES website or income tax portal and verify if all TDS and challan details match your records.
6. **Try Different Browser or Clear Cache:**
* Sometimes portal issues are browser-related. Try accessing TIN-NSDL portal in a different browser or clear your browser cache and cookies.

### Summary:
* Log in to TIN-NSDL → Check "Defaults" or "Communication" section for detailed file. * Download default statements if available. * Contact TIN Helpdesk if you still can’t find details. * Verify Form 26AS and challan payments for discrepancies.
