Hello! I have an urgent query that needs to be clarified at the earliest. I had been receiving couple of payments under professional income FY18-19 (as a freelance tuition teacher) from a company (teaching kid of owner of company and payments were made via NEFT and I had to raise personal invoices once every month or two for the same). The strange thing was that the TDS never got deducted and the officials now decided to file that TDS over income of INR 48,000 (TDS=4800) and adjust in this month's fees.

The TDS of 4800 got filed for FY18-19 a week ago and I am afraid that the entry isn't showing in Form 26AS as I have usually noticed that it takes about 3 months to update. Now with deadline almost approaching (31st July), I am almost ready with my preparation of ITR but have been just waiting for form 26AS to show the entry in order to claim the refund.

Please guide me what to do in this case. I cannot afford to lose that TDS because of the deductor's carelessness of filing TDS late.

Regards

Rythem

Not three month. If the TDS deducted for FY 2018-19 it will reflect in a weeks time after TDS return rectification.

So, check it now, or otherwise based on information from deductor, file ITR and claim TDS by manually filling the details in TDS2 column.

Thanks for your reply sir. Sorry I made an error by writing FY19 but it is FY18 that is last year as you guessed.

I have been checking my form 26as everyday but just worried about claiming that TDS since it might reflect after 31st July but I need to submit the ITR before that. Wouldn't manually filling the details lead to scrutiny as there would be mismatch from 26AS??
