My principal deducted TDS @ 10% on my professional income from coaching centre fot the AY 2008-09 and issued me TDS certificate mentioning my PAN and name. I filed my IT return for AY 2008-09, claiming refund of Rs approx 3 lakhs. But the department raised a demand of Rs. 2.9 lakhs for AY 08-09. After my inquiry, they informed me that the TDS claimed by me is not reflecting in 26AS. So the demand is correct. I approached the jurisdictional I.T.O who issued a notice to the deductor to confirm my TDS certificate. Deductor infoprmed the correctness of certificate and also informed department, that by mistake they mentioned wrong Pan no. in TDS return. They informed the NSDL to correct the PAN no. in the submitted return. After that, JCIT issued a refund cheque for AY 08-09 with intrest. But in subsequent year AY 09-10 and 10-11, my refund was again adjusted on the demand of AY 08-09 by CPC Bengalaru (which was Nil as per my computation).
On my request CPC informed me to contact the jurisdictional ITO as they are the only authority to correct the demand. After my several requests and persuasion, I was issued a partial cheque for Rs 90000 mentioning refund for 08-09.
But still there is approx Rs. 1.9 lakhs still due with the department for which several time i requested CPC, ITO, JCIT but in vain.
NOW WHAT IS THE REMEDY LEFT TO ME AS I HAVE FULLY LOST MY PATIENCE.

Ask your deductor to file the correction return with your correct PAN No., register for Form- 26AS, if you see your refund amount in your 26AS, then contact to IT Deptt, without correct return you will not get anything.

@Sushil Sir, Sincere thanks for your reply. But in this case the deductor is no more at good terms with our client. Further, the onus of filing the return & depositing the amount to the government's credit lies on the deductor. In this case, what else can be done?
In your opinion, which IT authority in the department's hierarchy should he approach to?
