Hello,

Not agree with Pansari Ji

Your employer can decline to issue Form 16 in case there is no deduction of tax at source.It is clear from a bare reading of section 203 of the I T Act and the relevant rule 31 of IT Rule .

Liability to give a certificate of tax deduction is given in Section 203 of the I T Act .For employer, specific provision is given in sub-section 2 of section 203 of the I T Act.

From 16 has two parts, Part – A & PART – B

Part - B is prepared by the employer manually, you may ask to your employer for PART – B.

Agree with Vishalji,

So per rules if TDS is dedcted then there is mandate to issue TDS certificate else salary slips with part- B filled manually are enough things to issue.

Please correct if wrong.
