TDS nil reflecting not in 26AS

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

If your employer hasn't deducted TDS on your salary because the amount falls below the exemption limit, they aren't technically at fault. However, they should still declare this in their TDS return so it appears as 'nil' reflecting in your 26AS. If your aggregate income exceeds the basic exemption limit, it's mandatory for them to mention this. You can still file your Income Tax Return using your bank statements as proof of salary received.

11 July 2023 The employee work for two months in a company and company did not deduct the TDS but when company is filling the TDS return then also they did not file that we have paid sum amount to this employee and tds is nil and due to which employee can't see on 26as the amount they have credited . so is there any rule where it is mandatory either u deduct or not deduct tds u have to show all those u have paid the amount as a salary

11 July 2023 When the amount paid is below limit for TDS to be deducted mandatory, the employer is not at default for TDS deduction; so even if he doesn't declare the employee for two months, he is not at fault.
You can file your ITR based on the bank statement declaring the salary amount received.
