IInd Entry 1)Tds on proff services DR 2) interst on TDS 2)Bank A/c CR (Being TDS Deposited) Now my question is shall we also file a revised return for 2008-09 & fresh form 16a should be issued to party. & if he already filled his return for the f.y 2008-09 , can he take credit of this revised form 16a . thanks , Nitin Bhatt
First you have to decide whether the amount [short deduction ] can be recovered from the party. if recoverable you have to Dr party account instead of expense account revise your TDS return and issue fresh form 16 so that party can avail credit also.
If not recoverable you can treat the amount as expense [prior period] and revising TDS return and issuing fresh form16 is optional
