Unjustified charge of interest and harrassment by income tax department

TDS 1616 views 27 replies

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...?

Hello, I m facing same problem.. even if my clients paid interest in original returns they did not consider the interest paid earlier. did you find any solution for this ??

Till now there was no response from them and all the notices are keep on changing...

Hi!

Please understand that TRACES is a new platform and of course, there are certain issues which are bothering the Assessees, but trust, TRACES are working on the same very soon we will see the results.

I personally visited the CPC office few times and tell them the issues which we are facing now a days. To my surprise, they have shown me that all such issues are already acknowledged by them and they are working on those lines.obviously, it will take some time. All unjustified demand automatically eroded once these issues are rsolved at CPC.

regarding Interest part, Whether you have filed revise return and shown all the interest paid in that revise return.if it is shown then it will not come again.

 

 

Dear e-filer,

I can understand the problem as I am myself handling over 700 TANs and you can imagine the kind of problem I am facing because there are unique kind of issue in each TAN the list is so long it will not fit in inbox but now we have to go with the TRACES.

Keep putting forward your problems to TRACES.It may take some time but it will be resolved.

agreeed that the pace of evolving is rather slow at TRACES but Be optimistic and calm.

But what to do now? bcz recently i m revising the return of PAN error nd they did not consider the PAN Update in RPU nd they send the notice again with same error....what to do now??

I am facing same problem and I have sent a mail with screen shot copy to contactus @ tdscpc.gov.in, the reply may be received within 2 days.

There is no UNJUSTIFIED CHARGE. it is the problem from our side that we have not filled interest in right column. PLEASE BE NOTED THAT ANY DETAILS FILLED IN CHALLAN WHILE MAKING PAYMENT IS INDEPENDENT OF DETAILS ENTERED IN RETURN. so kindly check whether you filled interest amount in interest column or not.

warning of  challan does not exist is temporary since you are filing your return before updation of challan on traces website. but it does not invalidate your return. IT IS ONLY WARNING due to unavailabaility of data at website.

Mr.Ankur,

I will give an example, 

2 years back we had received one notice from IT department asking us to pay interest for 2months and we paid and showed correctly in the return(interest column), then filed a revised return.

Now after 2 years, they again sent one more notice from TDSCPC asking us to pay 3 months interest. Now where does this extra month came from, why did they increased this one now..

This is not called unjustified charge..?

Thanks

you are correct that such error in calculation of months has been ignored by tin website due to software error and hence rectified in traces. Many people have taken advantage of this calculation and i regularly warned many people who are in contact to charge one month extra interest as per section. Now they have realised the change.

I am also facing dis problem. I have received almost all qtr default for all client. the main pro. is they dont claim the Interest on late payment, but i already paid the interest in original return. then my question is whether i prepare letter and post to cpc address. or send the mail to contactus @ tdscpc.gov.in. And also give ther proforma of letter.

@ Tushar,

I have corresponded with TDSCPC regarding this problem and knew that we have to fill Interest amount in two seprate column in "Challan Tab" that is column no. 7 and 20, now you will have to revise your return and mention interest amount in both column.

You have to mention interest amount in last column in rpu...so that interest amount is consumed....

dear abhishek whts the last column in rpu. i think u want to say that interest amount is also shown in interest to be allocated/apportioned. Am i right or wrong, if wrong then say where i will show the interest so, the demand will be quashed.
