PAN ADHAR LINK TDS

A client's PAN was linked to their Aadhaar in November 2023, after TDS was deducted at 1% in October. Due to the non-linking, the company then deducted TDS at 20% and deposited it. The question is whether the client can claim a refund for the excess TDS deducted when filing their Income Tax Return (ITR) for FY 2023-24. The consensus is yes, the client can claim the TDS credit in their ITR, provided the TDS has been correctly reflected in their Form 26AS.
