U may see that from the software through which the return is prepared. And if there is a demand then u must know the actual reason for the demand, which is mentioned there.

Here’s what you can do to handle this situation:
### You want to check the **24Q TDS return** filed by your previous employer (AY 2013-14), but:
* You can’t download 24Q or 26Q returns directly from the income tax portals. * You don’t have access to the software or the filed return copy. * There’s a demand notice, possibly due to incorrect PAN or data mismatch.
---
### Steps to Confirm & Resolve:
1. **Check Form 26AS:**
* Ask the employee (or yourself if you’re the deductee) to check Form 26AS on the Income Tax e-Filing portal for AY 2013-14. * Form 26AS shows TDS credited against your PAN for that year. * If PAN was incorrect in the return, TDS won’t reflect in your Form 26AS, causing demand.
2. **Contact Previous Employer or TDS Deductor:**
* Request them to provide the **TDS return acknowledgment or details**. * They can download the filed TDS return from the TRACES portal using their TAN and password. * They should also check for any mismatch and rectify by filing a correction statement if PAN was wrongly entered.
3. **Use TRACES Portal (if you have TAN access):**
* If you have the TAN and password of the previous employer or deductor, log in at [TRACES](https://www.tdscpc.gov.in/app/login.xhtml). * Download the 24Q file or TDS return details for the concerned year. * Identify mistakes (like wrong PAN).
4. **Rectification & Demand Resolution:**
* The employer/deductor should file a correction statement to fix wrong PAN or other errors. * Once corrected, the demand should get withdrawn automatically. * Alternatively, if you are the deductee, you can file your ITR and claim credit for TDS reflected in Form 26AS (only if correct).

### If none of the above is accessible:
* You can approach the **Assessing Officer** with proof of TDS deduction and request help. * Or use the **Grievance Redressal Portal** of Income Tax to report this issue.

If you want, I can help draft a formal email or notice for the previous employer requesting TDS return details or correction.
