Hi team,

I got a tax demand from IT department for AY 2020-21.

I checked my Form 16. My organisation deducted the tax for me so there should not be any problem.

The problem is somehow the TAN of deductor given in Form 26as and the ITR filed is different. That is why demand was sent to me. Is there anyway it could be solved?

Quick Summary

A tax demand has been raised due to a mismatch in the deductor's TAN between Form 26AS and the filed Income Tax Return (ITR). Although Form 16 shows the correct deduction, the differing TANs have caused the issue. If the TAN in Form 16 and Form 26AS are identical but differ in the ITR, a revised return should be filed. As the revised return deadline has passed, a rectification return is the recommended solution.
