23 July 2010 The payer is bound to issue TDS certificate. if not issued a "writ mandamus' can be issed compelling the payer to do so.

Citation :- Lakshmi Narayan Engineers Vs. KSEB & Anr (1989) 178 ITR 230(Ker).

OR

Pl file the return and claim the TDS on the strength of pay slip. Naturally ITO will disallow the claim of TDS. Then file appeal before CIT (Appeals) on the strength of the following citation.

Ahluwala &Associates Vs. ITO (2009) 19 DTR 462.

IN THIS CASE THE AHEMDBAD TRIBUNAL SAID THE DEDUCTEE CANNOT BE HELD LIABLE FOR THE PAYMENT OF TAX WHICH HAS ALREADY BEEN DEDUCTED AND IT IS FOR THE DEPARTMENT TO RECOVER THE AMOUNT FROM THE DEDUCTOR.
