251 views 2 replies
earlier CA of one of the client has furnished his return of income for AY 2017-18 as nil return within due date by entering everything as zero. however the client earned salary and interest on deposits which was reflecting in form 26AS. Income tax Dept had issued communication under 143(1)(a) and client failed to response to it. according return was processed and income reflected in form 26as is considered by Dept in intimation u/s 143(1) resulting in demand.
however Dept has not considered corresponding TDS Reflected in FORM 26AS.

WHAT REMEDY IS AVAILABLE IN THIS CASE SINCE TIME LIMIT TO FURNISH REVISED RETURN IS ALSO LAPSED AND RECTIFICATION FILED U/S 154 WILL ALSO BE REJECTED SINCE THAT WILL RESULT IN CHANGE IN INCOME

No.. there's no bar in filing rectification application under 154. you can file rectification application to consider the respective tds
You file rectification application immediately under 154 and seek TDS claim.

AO has also right to issue notice under 271(1)(c) for deliberately furnishing incorrect information in ITR. ( the penalty is 100% to 200% range ( of tax evaded ).

You ask your CA to do necessary remedial work.
