A client has received a mail about TDS Default. On downloading the Default file from TIN website, I found that the Department has taken Due date for TDS on Credits/ Provisions made on 31 March as 7 April instead of 31 May & demanded Interest. Now I want to know what should I do & to whom the reply letter has to be written?

A reply may be made requesting for rectification to the TDS section of the Income tax. They shall make the rectification of the same and revised notice shall be issued.

Dear, You shall have to reply to your jurisdictional Income Tax Authorities. However on practical note, There is no harm if you sit quite as this problem is rampant and Officers are equally clueless. Rgds, Pankaj

Dear Ajay, Check you client's deductor type (Government/ Other)in TAN database in income tax site. If its Government than first of all change this type by filling TAN data correction form and after correction in TAN data file revised/correction statement of TDS with NSDL.
