If one emoployee give us Investment declaration saying that he will invest Rs. 1 Lac in 80C.
But in March on demanding investment proof we come to know that he has invested only Rs. 10k.
Upon asking him the reason, he say that i have invested / Expensed my money somewhere else (Other than 80C investment), so i don't have money to invest u/s 80C.
By this he has deferred his tax deduction. (We would have deducted his tax in Monthly installments instead of March)
Now is any liablity on the Company for short deduction of tax in initial months?
Is there any liablity on the Emploeyee for giving wrong declaration even he has justification for not having money for investment u/s 80C, even he has planned?
