ii)- In all the returns filed in forms other than ITR-1 and ITR-2 for the A. Y. 2008-09, where the aggregate TDS claim does not exceed Rs four lakh and the refund computed does not exceed Rs.25,000, and there is 70% matching of TDS amount claimed, the TDS claim of the tax payer concerned should be accepted at the time of processing of return.
