The option to choose on website in rectification

1209 views 4 replies

Here is the scenario (its a bit long, please bear):

1. Received a demand notice for IT return mismatch. It stated amount mismatch on a TDS claim in the return. TRACES shows the amount as calculated by department (so it is a valid notice).

2. Checked with the employer if any mistake in PAN or something from their end in deposit of TDS. Indeed, a mistake was made. The employer rectified on his side and the TDS now appears on TRACES. So the mismatch is now resolved.

 

Now, as per the demand notice what it expects me to do in this case is:

"(2a) Mismatch of TDS/TCS amounts claimed compared to Form 26AS: As the credit not
appearing in 26AS, you should take up the matter of mismatch in the TDS/TCS, with your Deductor /
Collector so that corrective action can be taken by the Deductor / Collector. After the correction is done
and the corrected statement filed by your deductor which will appear in 26AS, you can apply for
online rectification under section 154 to get the benefit of unmatched credits under 5c(iii) category given
below."

So as suggested in the notice, I go for online rectification.

When I go this page on income tax website, I'm asked to choose "Rectification Request Type" (also see attachment).

Please help me selecting this option and the sub options I need to tick or fill.

In my opinion, you should choose" reprocess the case" option bec you cannot correct the data for tax credit mismatch or any other data. The return filed by you was perfect  . The deductor had made a mistake which is now corrected.

Thanks Madhavi. This will definitely be helpful.

A subsequent query is that after filling this rectification, do I still need to visit my Dashboard and go to "My Pending Actions" and submit  "Response to Outstanding Tax Demand". If so, please guide on choices here.

This (attachment) is what I plan to do.

After filing rectification, you can go to Response to Outstanding Tax Demand and can "disagree with the demand" and upload corrected TDS certificate
