A salaried individual who paid advance tax on their income is encountering a 'short deduction' issue when filing their company's TDS return, as there's no field to declare advance tax payments. The advice given is that TDS is the deductor's responsibility, and advance tax shouldn't be paid directly. The user should file the return and, if a demand notice arises, demonstrate that the advance tax paid was accounted for when computing the TDS liability.

I am a salaried person and i have already paid advance tax on my salary. Now when i calcuulated the tds liability on my salary income , i have calculated after deducting advance tax amount from it. When i filed tds return of my company , it is showing short deduction on my income and there is no provision to fill advance tax details in tds return..

TDS is deductor's liability. There is no such column for mentioning advance tax paid directly by the deductee. you are requested not to pay advance tax directly. Now you file the return and when the demand will come from the department you can show that the advance tax has directly paid by the deductee and considered by you at the time of computation of TDS.
