Deductor avoiding to deposit TDS.

This discussion addresses what a deductee can do if their deductor deliberately avoids depositing Tax Deducted at Source (TDS). While there isn't a direct legal procedure, the advice suggests asking the deductor to rectify the TDS details. Alternatively, a deductee can submit a grievance to the Income Tax department to complain about the counterparty. A related query highlights issues with TDS deducted but not reflected in Form 26AS, even when the deductor is the tax department itself.
