Filing Form 16 not required for refund

Last updated: 01 June 2007

The Income Tax Department has said there was no need for appending 'Form 16' - the statement of tax deducted at source - with the returns on income to avail of tax refunds.
"A taxpayer is not required to file any document relating to computation of income or challans or TDS certificates (Form 16 or form 16A) or TCS certificates along with these annexure- less returns, irrespective of whether a refund is claimed," an official release said today.
The government, it said, has amended Rule 12 of the Income Tax Rules so as to notify the new income tax return forms for assessment year 2007-08, which requires no annexure.
