Bank would have filed TDS retrun showing tds on account of two seperate deductees having two separate PAN. Thus one assessee can not take credit of tds which is credited to seperate assessee. This may invite notice from department to the assessee taking extra credit. That is why now department ask assessee to verify 26AS before filing his return.
