Hi Sir, I worked at a company in Mumbai for 5 months. They cut around Rs. 2800 TDS from salary every month but have not yet provided me Form 16 despite multiple attempts to ask them for it. It has been over 1 year now. The company mis-treated me badly before i left, and i think that the reason they are not sending Form 16 is because they are not a registered legal company (i.e. they are not filing returns properly). They seem to be using a different office address and maybe also a different company name from among their many fake company names. What complaint/suit can i file against them?

Hi Mr. Ajmera, Yes i have applied for online vieiwing of 26AS 2 days ago, i will get the info by tomorrow. I am pretty sure though that they have not submitted the TDS to the Govt. Account. How can i sue/complaint against them in that case?

Take your salary slips & see the name of the company if it is PVt Ltd or Ltd company, you can get the details from http://www.mca.gov.in/DCAPortalWeb/dca/MyMCALogin.do?method=setDefaultProperty&mode=31. Just put the name of company you will get its all registration details.

I got the TAN number from the incometaxindieeling site, the company was refusing to give me their TAN! Their salary slip doesn't mention CIN/FCRN (which is U74300MH2008PTC181735). Found it at http://www.mca.gov.in/DCAPortalWeb/dca/MyMCALogin.do?method=setDefaultProperty&mode=14

Their name is showing as "POSTSCRIPT ADVERTISING PRIVATE LIMITED". Also one more thing, they have used two PAN numbers (which i'm pretty sure is illegal) for the same company. I got this number "AAJFP4853B" from one of their documents lying about in office. The knowtan page displayed their PAN as "AAECP6868N". How is this? Is there some page where i can run a search on this duplicate PAN "AAJFP4853B"? Thanks a ton, you're a saviour!
I ran a search on https://incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in/portal/common.do?screen=jurisdiction
This PAN "AAJFP4853B" showed - MUM, AO Type: W, Range Code: 181, AO Number: 4, Jurisdiction: ITO WD 18(1)-4 [NEW]
This PAN "AAECP6868N" showed - MUM, AO Type: P, Range Code: 71, AO Number: 1, Jurisdiction: ADL/JCIT RG 7(1) [NEW]
Yet more interestingly the knowtan page for company name 'Postscript...........showed - MUM, AO Type: WT, Range Code: 82, AO Number:5
22203. 23[(1)] 24Every person deducting tax in accordance with 25[the foregoing provisions of this Chapter] 26[shall, within such period as may be prescribed from the time of credit or payment of the sum, or, as the case may be, from the time of issue of a cheque or warrant for payment of any dividend to a shareholder], furnish to the person to whose account such credit is given or to whom such payment is made or the cheque or warrant is issued, a certificate to the effect that tax has been deducted, and specifying the amount so deducted, the rate at which the tax has been deducted and such other particulars as may be prescribed.]
27[(2) Every person, being an employer, referred to in sub-section (1A) of section 192 shall, within such period, as may be prescribed, furnish to the person in respect of whose income such payment of tax has been made, a certificate to the effect that tax has been paid to the Central Government, and specify the amount so paid, the rate at which the tax has been paid and such other particulars as may be prescribed.]

It seems that earlier that was a partnership firm with PAN AAJFP4853B the name was "P S ADVERTISING" & then got takeover or converted them self to pvt ltd company called POSTSCRIPT ADVERTISING PRIVATE LIMITED.

Hi Sirs, I have just viewed my Tax Credit online. No tax had been paid as TDS on my behlaf by the deductor to the Govt. Around Rs. 13,500 was the total TDS deducted by this firm Postscript. I have sent them a registered post letter letting them know about this and asking them a reson why i should not complain to the IT Dept. What i am foxed by is that i have got 2 other Form 16 from two other companies that i had worked for. Both had deducted TDS but neither (JWT Mumbai, Radio Mirchi Surat) shows up on the tax credit page. Radio Mirchi (Entertainment Network India Limited) reflects only two months worth of TDS on teh tax credit page whereas i worked there for 7 months. JWT doesnt show anything at all despite me having worked there for 1 year from april 05 to may 06. I don't have any issue with JWT or Radio Mirchi, i only want to sue Postscript Adveritisng. But still, if TDS has been cut then it should reflect on my tax credit page. Please guide me what i should do.
