Unjustified charge of interest and harrassment by income tax department

Hi All,

I am going through different TDS intimations received by our clients where the TDS CPC is charging additional interest and showing short deductions and not considering the interest already paid by the assesseess...

 

Now a days TDS CPC is sending so many notices and demands without checking the validity of the demands or notices and wasting so much precious time of people.....

 

Is it sending a wrong message into the public about the TDSCPC that whatever sent by TDS CPC is wrong that will change automatically after sometime.

This making the assesseess frighten about the TDS filing and some may even stop their filing TDS returns to get away from this harrassement.

There is one call centre provided by CPC where you have to wait for hours to get through and they never gave a proper reply, even if you send any mails to them they are responding with some automated replies..

Please answer is IT department is justified by issuing notices without checking the validity of the notices...?
