TDS Returns not filed by Deductors, what does assesee do

I have filed my Income Tax Return based on the TDS Certificate issued by the Deductor (Govt. of Maharashtra Dept.).

The Deductor (Govt. of Maharashtra Dept.) has not filed their quarterly eTDS returns for the past many years.

Now during my assessment the Income Tax Authorities have added the said amounts of TDS as not paid/matched and raised a demand for the same alongwith interest and penalty.

Please Advice.

Regards

Dear Anand Ji,

You just appear before Tax Authorities - ITO ,with all tds certificates (on basis of which you filed returns) and give them in written that you are not assesse in default rather the deductor is defaulting by not filing the tds returns, Thus the justice and law will prevail and action will be done against the assessee in default. Moreover to speed up the process you may submit an application with copies of all TDS Forms to the concerned ITO TDS and request them to do favor to you.

Agree with mr Ritesh. There is no fault from your side. You can claim TDS as per your form 16. So no worry for this. As said by Mr. Ritesh just submit copies of  Form-16 to AO n make a written representation  for the same
