Thanks to online initiative taken by the government, now anyone whose tax has been deducted at source can VIEW if the tax deducted is deposited with the government . Do you want to view? This facility is being provided by NSDL through which Tax information network initiative is being implemented. Following is the excerpts of the "how to " given on NSDL website . Follow these steps and , you will be able to view tax deduction made in your case.This is important because many a time , tax is deducted by the deductor , but not deposited to the government in time. this leads to dis allowance of tax credit and further lose of interest etc. So here are the excerpts:


TIN facilitates a PAN holder to view its Annual Tax Statement (Form 26AS) online. Form 26AS contains

  • details of tax deducted/collected on behalf of the taxpayer by deductors/collectors
  • advance tax/self assessment tax/regular assessment tax, etc. deposited by the taxpayers (PAN holders)
Steps for viewing Tax Credit

  • 1. Online Registration of PAN by PAN holder
  • 2. Verification of identity and authorisation by TIN-Facilitation Centre
  • 3. View Tax Credit

Registration & authorisation is a one-time activity. This can happen in two ways:

  • a) PAN holder can personally visit any TIN-FC of its choice and get his PAN request authorised; or,
  • b) PAN holder can request any TIN-FC to visit him at an address specified by him and get his PAN authorised.
Registration Fee

There is no charge for viewing the Tax Credit online, however, the TIN-FC may charge for authorization of PAN as follows:
  • a) TIN-FC will charge Rs.17 (i.e. Rs.15 + service tax) for authorisation of PAN registration request, when the PAN holder personally visits the TIN-FC.
  • b) TIN-FC will charge Rs.110 (i.e. Rs.100 + service tax) for authorisation of PAN registration request in those cases where the PAN holder opts for the TIN-FC to visit him.
