Income tax

A Bank has deducted TDS on FD of an assessee @ 20% beacuse assessee had never provided PAN to the Bank.

Now, assessee, being unaware of this deduction of TDS, never filed ITR on time. Now, after one year (due date of ITR lapsed) , he came to know about the deduction of TDS by Bank. 

Queries: -

 

1) Can he claim the refund by filing BELATED ITR?

2) Bank is not filing revised TDS return. Any remedy to this?

3) Though, Bank has agreed & has provided a paper based Form 16A under the seal of the Bank. However, AO is not allowing credit of TDs based on this.

 

pls share the opinion.

 

Some suggestions from my friends: -

 

1) File RTI with teh Bank forcing them to file revised return & then claim credit. 

OR

2)

-Go to TIN website,-

-trace the ward of the Bank with its TAN No.,

- Go to the AO of Bank,

-request him about the case in writing,

-cause him to order Bank to file revised return,

-get a copy of the same as well (keep it with u),

-file a belated return...u will get a demand notice for balance tax payable,

-file a rectification by showing that order got from the AO of the Banker.

yes you should file an IT return and claim TDS return...and as you can not force the bank...keep submit the copy of your bank correspondences to ur AO...and claim for the refund...

Thanx Vikas

 

But, on filing the ITR.,  a demand U/s 156 would ber generated against which although my client has already paid tax to govt ( in terms of TDS deducted by Bank), but, AO is denying to accept refund (or adustment against the deamnd generated) on the basis of paper based Form 16A.

 

Can u please provide a concrete & practical solution.

hari u have to file ITR even though belated... u can claim TDS by the Form 16 A.... It would b the easiest way out.... if at all the notice u/s.156 is recd...u can show Form 16A and say that due to no pan given 20% tds was deducted...hence no record is there in 26 AS... bank is not ready to revise.... now what to do let him decide... i think u will get ur tds refund...dont worry with it....go ahead with filing of itr... u have to do this...cannot b skipped..... best of luck...
