As per section 40(a)(ia) , no disallowance will be made if after the deduction of tds during the the previous year , the same has been paid on or before the due date of filing of return of income.

However this amendment is to take effect retrospectively from 1st april 2010 and will accordingly apply on relation to assessment year 2010-11 and subsequent years.
