Hello Friends,

We have to pay tax again out of our pocket?

How can we deal this?

Quick Summary
If your employer has deducted TDS on your salary but hasn't paid it to the government, it won't appear in your Form 26AS. You may need to pay the tax again. First, confirm the situation with your employer and request they deposit the TDS and file returns. If they fail to do so, you can file a grievance on the Income Tax portal with proof of deduction, such as payslips and bank statements.

Check with employer: First, confirm with your employer whether they've deducted TDS but not deposited it. Request them to deposit the TDS amount with the authorities. 

Verify Form 26 AS properly.

Claim Credit in INcome Tax Return: If the employer hasn't deposited TDS, you might still need to pay tax on your income. However, when filing your income tax return, you can claim credit for the TDS deducted by the employer if you have proof of deduction. 

Communicate with tax authorities if needed. 

Thanks for your reply sir...

Shall we file a complaint to the Concerned Assessing Officer with the proofs such as 

  1. Payslip having deduction of TDS
  2. Bank Statement having salary credit after TDS

 

Dear Sangeeth Kumar,

Advise: First check with employer, they may have paid the TDS but not filed TDS returns / or there may be some error in filing TDS returns - that could be reason for your TDS not showing in 26AS.

Ask them to file TDS returns if not filed, ask them to make corrections if returns are filed but some error occured.

Clear above points before making any complaint against them.

Regards.

 

Thanks for your reply Manoj sir...

Confirmed with the employer about it.

TDS amount not paid and TDS return not filed by the employer because of loss in the company.

Sir

can we address in Grievance in IT portal

All of you sufferers.

Plz read the Byju story.

2 Brothers and wife of the elder one are having a jolly time in UAE, while all the ex employees have got notice from Income Tax Department to clear the TDS, which Byjus had deducted and not paid to the Govt.

 

 

I T Dept. should make strict actions regarding this issue.

Many employers deducted TDS and not deposited to the govt.

At last, the employees paying the Income tax for the notice.
