06 May 2022 Thanks Seetharaman Ji for your valuable advise, but I have a doubt - Is there any penalty on company for less deduction of TDS?

06 May 2022 No penalty in case the employee make good the less deduction and file ITR.
In case of any notice you obtain a certificate from CA that short deduction is paid by employee and file it online no penalty can be levied.
Ask the employee to make good the short deduction while filling ITR. Obtain a copy of ITR from him.

06 May 2022 You will receive a notice from the Income-tax department for a short TDS deduction.

But you have to reply to that notice by writing to the jurisdictional officer that the short TDS have been already paid by the employee while filing the IT return.

Further, you can also obtain Form 26A for your records.

06 May 2022 Thanks a lot Seetharaman Ji and Puja Ji for your valuable suggestions.
