Hello,
Today, I got an intimation from the Income Tax Department, Bangalore, under 143(1) saying that I need to pay a large amount of tax for the Assessment Year 2008-09. The letter says TDS is 0, under the column "As Computed Under Section 143(1)" ! I had got Form 16 from my employer for that year, where the TDS was all paid appropriately and the same form 16 was used to file the ITR. Basically, this letter is saying that no TDS happened at all. I've a copy of Form 16 and ITR for the concerned year.
Can anyone please explain what is going on ? And more importantly, what I should be doing now ? I don't know even know whom to contact. I heard I have to contact the "Assessing Officer", but who is it for me ? All this exercise is quite unncessary from my side, for the apparent fault of someone/something.
Thanks for any help.
