The DDO must rectify the situation by filing or correcting the TDS return via the TRACES portal. Once the TDS is properly linked to the employee PANs in the system, the tax credit will appear in the employees' Form 26AS, and the employees can then resolve their individual demands through an online "Rectification Request" on the Income Tax e-Filing portal. If the demand on the DDO's TAN persists after filing, the DDO should submit proof of deposit to the jurisdictional TDS Assessing Officer.
