Hi,

I have paid TDS deducted in the month of February 2012 in March 2012 through challan at a bank. I have mentioned the Assessment Year as 2012-13. I have considered this challan in the TDS return of Q1 for F.Y. 2012-13. Now I have received an intimation from TDS authorities for short payment. (I think this is because of the challan has assessment year 2012-13 instead of 2013-14 ). Is there a way to rectify this mistake?? Can I now modify the assessment year from 2012-13 to 2013-14? Can the bank do it or TDS A.O? or has the time limit lapsed ?
