Give copy of Pan card to the bank. Request them to file the quarterly return or if filed to rectify that return. After this tax credit will appear in your account via., form 26AS. Then file your return and seek refund. AO will gran refund if and only if credit appears in form 26AS.

Here’s what you can do if the bank refuses to rectify TDS return even after you provide your PAN:
---
### 1. **Legal Obligation on Bank**
* Under **Section 200(3)** of the Income Tax Act, every deductor (bank in this case) is required to file the TDS return correctly. * If PAN is provided after TDS deduction, the bank is **legally bound to rectify the TDS return** (file a correction statement) for the relevant quarter.
---
### 2. **Steps to Take**
* **Write a formal letter** to the bank requesting rectification of TDS return with PAN details and cite **Section 200(3)**. * If the bank still refuses, you may escalate the matter to the **Income Tax Department**.
---
### 3. **Filing Complaint with Income Tax Department**
* You can file a complaint on the Income Tax Department’s official portal:
* Visit: [https://www.incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in](https://www.incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in) * Use the “Grievance” or “Taxpayer Complaints” section to report the bank’s refusal.
* Attach copies of PAN, TDS certificates, and correspondence with the bank.
---
### 4. **Filing Your ITR**
* File your Income Tax Return with details of TDS deducted (as per Form 16A or TDS certificate). * Even if TDS return is not rectified, mention the actual TDS deducted. * You can **claim credit for TDS in your ITR**, and the Assessing Officer (AO) may ask for proof during assessment. * If TDS credit is not reflected in Form 26AS, the refund may be delayed or disputed until rectification.

If you want, I can help draft the letter to the bank citing the legal section. Would you like that?
