01 February 2014 Yes, form 16 should be give by employer to employee irrespective of taxable income,TDS deducted etc... Because of form 16 is evidence for the payment of salary and other allowances etc...

01 February 2014 The Form 16 is must in case of TDS. But if there is no TDS then Form 16 is not required and you can simply obtain a salary certificate from employer.
