The assessee has received notice from TDS department for non payment of interest for 4th Quarter Return of 2009-10. TDS Payments were made in time. I registered the TAN and downloaded the default file. In default file I came to knew that the category under which the assessee is registered with Department is 'Central/State Government'. They have charged interest for 1 month delay as for Govt deductor TDS has to be deposited on same date of deduction. Now I am going to apply for change in TAN data. I do not know this mistake in category is on our part or department part. Should I need to deposit this interest amount? or Can I file a plea for writing off the above demand?

Check the correspondance at the time of TAN application what assessee has marked under category option, if it not traceble then file application for correction in TAN data after u can file plea to Assessing Officer to remove above demand from their system.
