Hello,
We (LLP) have changed the name in PAN , but in Form 26AS it is showing the Old name
We have TAN no with old name with Old address (Pune Juris.) and now changed to new address ( Mumbai Juris.)
So we applied for New TAN No. ( but we need not have any returns to file TDS returns) without surrendering old TAN.
Client is objecting that old name showing in PAN Verification in Traces.
Please guide me in this for change of name in Form 26AS. ??
I may be wrong but I don't think there's any way of changing information directly in the 26AS. It's populated from the TAN database.
However, it doesn't make any difference. The PAN and TAN matter, not the name. Any validation is done against the number.
For what it's worth, my sister changed her name in the PAN / TAN 6 years ago when she got married. But it still shows up under her maiden name sometimes. Doesn't make any difference to anyone.
You can not change the information displayed in Form 26AS.
If the correct TAN is reflected in the Form 26AS of the deductee with the required TDS amount then he can ignore the name reflected there.
