My Son was in Service in India May-2018 till Jul-2020 , then left the Employment and went to abroad for Studies . His EPF money withdrawn in full last Nov'23 around Rs.1.18 lACS . As per 26AS TDS deducted Rs. 13144 /- ( REGIONAL OFFICE BOMMASANORA 2) . Need to claim this deducted amounted since his overall Earnings is less than basic Exemption of Rs. 2.50 / 3.00 lakhs
While filing IT , where should we show this amount .
Should it be shown Under Salary head ( Salary from Provident Fund Office ) , if we show under salary head subsequently it offers another Rs.50000 /- Standard deduction , Is it OK . or should we show it as Income from other Source .
In IT - TIS it is said as - Receipt of accumulated balance of pf from employer u/s 111

If the continuous employment duration is less than five years, then the contribution of the employer to the EPF as well as the interest received on it is taxable in the income tax return of the subscriber under the category 'income from Other Sources'. An employees' own contribution becomes taxable under the head 'salary' if withdrawal is made before completion of five years and if you have claimed deduction on that contribution under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act. In the event of a withdrawal prior to five years, the interest received on the subscriber's own contribution to the EPF shall be taxed under the head of 'income from other sources'.

Is it necessary that the total PF amount withdrawal to be split into 3 components and shown while filing ITR
1. Employees Contribution under Section 10(11) under EI ( exempted Income) 2. Interest on Employees Share under other source of income which is taxable 3. Employers Contribution and interest towards this contribution under head Salary Income
In such scenario will the std deduction. Rs.50000/- get deducted.
TDS Rs. 13144/- under section 192 A was deducted on the total EPF balance Rs 131444/- and final payment out Rs.118300/- credited to bank account .
This is major confusion .
IT notice reads while Credit of TDS being claimed , the corresponding receipts are not offered in respective Income Schedule .
So to resolve the entry of Income Schedule need to be correct , where I'm struck up .

As such answer to all three is YES. If you do not have break up, declaring total amount under Salary head would solve the defect, as the total income is below exempted limit.

Ok , thanks a lot for such Swift reply . In this scenario since we received the money from EPF office , we can show the employer as EPF office . Am I right in saying so .

On scrutinisinng further i have notice the following from 26AS / AIS
Actual amount got credited into Bank account is Rs. 118300 /- and TDS deducted is Rs. 13144 /- . Hence while filing first time , I have indicated Income From PF withdrawl is . 131444 /- , but in 26AS / AIS iy is showing Amt Credited Rs. 118300 /- . Should i shown the Income as Rs. 131444 /- ( Rs. 118300 + Rs. 13144 ) OR only Rs. 118300 /-
Thanks sir , But given below the notice narration what was received
Error Description
The gross receipts shown in Form 26AS, on which credit for TDS has been claimed, are higher than the total of the receipts shown under all heads of income, in the return of income. Thus, while credit for TDS is being claimed, the corresponding receipts are not offered in the respective income schedules, to arrive at the taxable total income. Hence, the return of income filed is regarded as defective, as provided in Explanation (a) under section 139(9).
Probable Resolution The correction of this defect has to be made by filing a corrected return and disclosing the complete receipts, as per Form 26AS. Alternatively, the claim of TDS may be made corresponding to the extent of income/receipts disclosed in the return. Please note that Credit for the TDS is allowable to the person in whose hands the income is assessable and in the year (AY) in which such income is assessable (Rule 37BA). Also note that if the defect is not corrected with-in the time allowed, return will be processed and the credit for TDS will be allowed proportionately.
since it says the amount not matching the doubt is raised , shoud we say Rs.118300 /- AS PER 26 AS /TIS Orginally i have showed Rs. 131444 /- ( HOWEVER I SHOWN THAT AS INCOME FROM OTHER SOURCE HEADING)

""The gross receipts shown in Form 26AS, on which credit for TDS has been claimed, are higher than the total of the receipts shown under all heads of income, in the return of income. "" It means you have declared less income. Resolution, income shown in salary is declared '0' while TDS has been claimed over it. In short, declare the income in Salary head.
