If you've already filed your Income Tax Return (ITR) but a client later filed TDS that wasn't reflected in your Form 26AS, you can't simply claim it in the next financial year's ITR. Instead, you'll need to file a rectification under Section 154 of the Income Tax Act to correct the tax credit mismatch for the original financial year. This process allows you to claim the missed TDS and apply for a refund. Fortunately, rectification is generally permitted for up to four years from the relevant assessment year.

HI Experts, I had filled my ITR for FY 2021-22. At that time one of my client had not filled TDS and the same was not showing on my Form 26AS. Thus, I didn't claim that TDS amount and didn't carried forward. After my filling of ITR, the client filled TDS. Now, can I claim that TDS amount in my ITR of FY 2022-23 as the same was not carried forward?
