It is the responsibility of DDO to deduct the TDS at average rate of income tax as applicable, before disbursing the salary. However, U/s 192 (2A) the DDO can allow relief u/s 89(i) to employee, if claimed against the arrears.

DDO has erroneously calculated TDS applicability ( short deduction of rs. 1,00,000/-, after considering all exemption , deductions & relief considering) and also finalized the Form -16 ( also issued to individual). In this case what is provision for DDO to recover the short TDS?
