Quick Summary

This discussion addresses an incorrect entry under section 194IB (TDS on rent) appearing on a Form 26AS for FY 2020-21. The user's employer has not rectified the issue. Advice suggests that the employer cannot amend this, and the PAN may have been mistakenly used by another individual. The user is advised to try and reduce the incorrect entry during ITR filing or to locate the person responsible for the error to avoid future queries.

194IB is related to TDS on rental income. Employer cannot do anything about it. Probably, someone might have mentioned your PAN by mistake. See if you can reduce this while filing ITR.
