TDS U/s 194 J has been deducted on my stipend as an industrial trainee. I had explained the co. that stipend is not taxable but they did not budge. Now to claim the TDS I would have to file ITR IV showing the stipend income as professional income? Is this appropriate?

section 192 clearly specifes that it TDS u/s 192 will be deducted only on the income which is taxbale under head salaey, since stipend is ot taxable as salary no tDS u/s 192 in stipend

Hello! Thanks for the reply. So, which ITR form should I use if not ITR IV to claim refund of the TDS deducted out of my stipend U/s 194J. Other than the stipend income I have a meagre amt of interest income. Thanks in advance Regds

Yes. Since tax is wrongly deducted on 194J you should ITR-4 and also you can claim the expenses which you have incurred for earning such stipend such as books, conveyance expenses etc.
