TDS Vs Advance Tax

Save Share

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

This discussion explores whether an individual can pay their income tax liability through advance tax instead of relying on their employer for Tax Deducted at Source (TDS). While an employer is generally responsible for TDS, paying advance tax and providing proof of payment to the employer might be acceptable. The core concern is whether the employer could face IT department notices if the employee handles their tax payments directly.

16 May 2024 Respected Sir,
I am Paying my Tax Liability by myself in the form of Advance Tax ,instead of TDS through my office.Office clerk says that by doing office may get I.T.department notice.
My question is 1) Really such notice can serve department to office.
2) Can I deposite tax on office TAN with my name sothat I can prove deposite tax is filled by me.

16 May 2024 what is the logic for doing this. Forget the notice, your office should not even allow this as it is their liability to pay off the TDS.

The second question again makes no sense!

17 May 2024 Agree with you,but the office demands money for the annual tentative I.T.calculation & Form 16.I refuse to pay and pay tax in the form of advance tax from last 4/5 years.But somebody says to clerk about notice,hence this que.

17 May 2024 okay. understood. ignore my previous comment. I re-read the provisions. as long as you are paying advance tax in time and sharing the challans with the employer, it should be okay.
