Wrong tan entry by bank

dear mukunthan,

                 i think we also had a similar situation some time ago..then we had to go for a tedius procedure to write letter to bank and to check with them regularly for them to correct it...thats the only option i think as a.o can grant credit only if it reflets in 26as and it happens only when tanmatches..

you have to see the nsdl website. If it is not rectified you have to correct the data base by moving to a tin centre.

DEAR v.r. mukunthan,

FIRST OF ALL DOWNLOAD THE FOLLOWING PDF FILE.

MOREOVER, THE OLTAS (On Line Tax Accounting System) HAS INTRODUCED New Procedure of challan correction by banks (for physical challans): the banks are permitted to correct data relating to three fields only i.e. amount, major head code and name.

The other errors can be corrected only by the assessing officers.

THERE IS TIME LIMIT MENTIONED FOR EACH TYPE OF CORRECTION., U MAY NEED TO REQUEST THE BANK WITH THE ATTACHED COPY OF PROCEDURE AFTER FILLING THE CORRECT DETAILS IN REQUEST LETTER ATTACHED..

NOTE: CORECTION IN FIELDS OTHER THAN PAN/TAN, ASS. YEAR AND AMOUNT ARE PERMITTED TO BE REQUESTED FOR CORRECTION WITHIN 3 MONTHS FROM DATE OF CHALLAN..U MAY FOLLOW THE SAME,

AS PAN/TAN CAN ONLY BE CORRECTED WITHIN 7DAYS..BEST LUCK IN ADVANCE..

TRY THE SAME PROCEDURE AND REPLY, WHETHER YOU GOT SUCCESS IN CORRECTING THE SAID CHALLAN... BEST LUCK.

dear sirm

first you file the return by including this challan. You may receive a notice from ITD that you have a short payment of TDS. Then you go to the AO produce the challan with different TAN. Then he will make necessary corrections. This may be done in advance if the ITO accept you request in Advance.  They are all busy in finalising 2007-08 and 2008-09. Hence they may not reponse to your request.  But when the notice comes from ITD, they will defiently change the TAN to relase the short payment shown in the notice.
