11 September 2012 Hello everyone,

one of my client had TDS Rs.1500/- in the AY 2007-08.

in the income tax return he adjusted the entire 1500 and thus there was NIL liability.

after 4 years he received demand notice form the ITD regarding payment of Rs.1500/-.

i have checked the 26AS and TDS is not credited to his account. But when i checked the FORM 16A the PAN is correct.

should client pay the tax or Not ?

Issuer of TDS certificate should revise his TDS return and then you will get the your TDS in Form 26AS. If the issuer of TDS certificate does not do that, its your responsibility to pay the amount to department
