10 July 2011 The problem must lies in TDS on salary for which the department could not have match the corresponding deposit entries.

*
Check whether Correct PAN No. mentioned by the employer and also try to find out the reasons of demand by meeting the AO.
*
Meet the concerned ITO with the Form 16 and find out the root of problem.
*
Without knowing the facts it is not possible to give any letter format. Wahe -Guru Sub Theek Karega... just go to Amritsar.

10 July 2011 Hi Sir,

Thanks for the reply.

I want to tell you that the pan number mentioned on the top of the notice is not mine. There is a misprinting in one of the letters of pan card.....

However at that time I did not update my pan card with my employer but now it is been done. Can this be the reason of the tax not being credited.

Do u recommend me to meet the finance department of my company and ask for the details.

I do have another question, if at that time i didn;t update my pan card number, where did my tax go then.

Also I have my exams starting on 13-july-2011 and wl go upto 24-jul-2011 so in this time it is impossible to go to amritsar.

Can i send them a written reply?

Waiting for the reply.

11 July 2011 Please check your tax credits in your 26 AS online and then proceed for thinking of missing entries or whether correct PAN had been given to your employer or any other missing entries, in case the demand is given earlier if you had paid that then show your supportings in person to the ITO.

13 July 2011 Rely to Income tax officer " that you have paid all the taxes through T.D.S and not liable to pay any tax" and file copy of FORN NO. 16 and STATEMENT OF TAX DEDUCTION along with this reply.
